Racing bikes are ideal for professional cyclists, fitness enthusiasts, and anyone who enjoys the thrill of fast-paced riding. Whether you’re training for a triathlon or enjoying weekend rides, a racing bike is built for the ultimate cycling experience.

Classic bike insurance is a specialized insurance policy that covers vintage or older bikes, protecting them from theft, damage, and other risks that standard bike insurance might not cover.

Classic bikes are often rare or have sentimental value, making them expensive to repair or replace. Insurance helps protect against theft, damage, and liability, safeguarding both the monetary and emotional investment in your bike.

Premiums for classic bike insurance typically range between €5 and €20 per month, depending on the bike’s value, condition, and usage. More comprehensive plans, including custom part protection, will generally cost more.

You will need to provide details about your bike (model, make, value), personal information, and sometimes proof of an approved lock for theft protection.

Classic bike insurance covers theft, accidental damage, mechanical failures, liability for accidents, and, depending on the policy, custom parts or restoration work.

To file a claim, log into your insurer’s portal and follow the steps to provide details of the incident, along with any necessary documentation (such as photos of damage or a police report for theft). The claims process varies between providers.
