No, if the high speed bike reaches a speed of no more than 45 km/h with pedal assistance then, under Belgian legislation, it's not necessary for you to take out Third-Party Insurance for motor vehicles.
The high speed bikes in our range are covered by this comprehensive insurance for theft and damage.
If you have an accident with another party, it's best to call on your family insurance.We therefore advise you to check the conditions of your family insurance concerning high speed bikes.
Yes, you must pay a deductible or excess of 50 euros for each claim file (accident or theft) regardless of the type of bike.
Does your bike have damage that can still be repaired, but is not insured under our conditions? Then you can have your bike repaired by an authorised bike dealer at your expense.
Is your bike damaged beyond repair? In that case, we draw up the settlement statement of your lease contract for the bike, the options and the accessories.
Yes, you're covered worldwide.
Your bike, options and accessories are covered for damage and theft, provided that:
- you've secured your bike with an ART bicycle lock (category 2)
If you leave your bike in at an unmonitored location, you must secure it to an object (fence, pole, bike shed, etc.). We therefore advise you to add a chain lock to your lease contract
- you have handled your bike responsibly (i.e. you've taken proper care of it)
