Markel Bike Insurance - Bike Insurance Review

Cannondale SystemSix

I was paranoid about not having insurance for my bike during an upcoming trip. I searched for bike insurance and compared Markel and Sundays, but eventually, I chose BikeInsure. The BikeInsure website is well-designed and easy to navigate. BikeInsure had everything I needed for my Cannondale.

There was a system hiccup during the signup process when my initial payment attempt timed out. However, I tried again, and the payment went through successfully. After the signup, BikeInsure informed me they had noticed a technical issue during my first payment attempt. However, they assured me the order was accurate, and my policy was on the way.

I left the cold of Chicago behind and headed to California for some cycling miles. Good news! The bike arrived in great shape. Thank you, BikeInsure, for the customer service and bike insurance coverage.

Trek Speed Concept

I had an unfortunate accident during a group bike ride. As a result of the collision, my bike's fork, wheel, and rotor were damaged, and my pride was hurt.

I had a fantastic experience with BikeInsure. They promptly helped me repair my bicycle at the bike shop of my choice. Not only that, but I received an insurance check for $2,125 in just ten days, which exceeded my expectations. Their service is truly impressive, and my bike appears as good as new.

Specialized Tarmac

My wife had a bike accident, leaving her Trek Domane bicycle with a cracked carbon frame. We live in California, where several Insurance Carriers have stopped selling new home insurance policies. As a result, although our Farmers insurance may have covered the claim, we realized that doing so, as our agent agreed, could cancel our homeowner's insurance policy. Therefore, we paid out-of-pocket to replace my wife's bicycle and decided to get a separate bike insurance policy for my Specialized and her Trek.

‍Our lesson learned was our homeowner's insurance policy could not cover our bikes, and that realization cost us a lot of money. We confidently chose BikeInsure because it is the only bicycle insurance company endorsed by USA Cycling.

Pinarello Dogma

Had it not been for BikeInsure, I'd be screwed.

My BikeInsure'd bicycle was recently stolen when a thief violated my life and stole my bike, which had my prosthetic arm still attached to the handlebar while I was training for the Paralympics.

BikeInsure promptly paid me $10,000 just days after I filed my claim. The claims adjuster was kind and efficient. I was relieved and grateful for the quick and compassionate service I received from BikeInsure.
