Insure your bicycle when travelling with a bike box

Whether you are heading to climb the cols of France or shred the trails of Whistler we can cover you and your bike.

Travelling with your bike box has its risks though. If, for instance, your bike box and/or luggage gets lost by the airline or your bike is damaged in transit, our specialist bicycle and travel insurance will have you covered.

Our dedicated customer service team will help you repair your bicycle if possible or hire an emergency replacement to ensure you are able to complete your event as planned. Not only this but we will cover a number of other potential risks before, during and after your ride.

As a Bike Box Hire customer, you also receive an exclusive 10% discount.

Just type in BIKEBOX10 in the discount code box to receive your discount.

The Key Features
Bicycle Experts

If you need to make a bicycle insurance claim, you won’t be read a script by someone who doesn’t know what they’re doing. Our customer-driven claims process is managed completely in house, meaning knowledge and expertise are guaranteed.

CLAIMS & RENEWALS

With a Yellow Jersey Bicycle Insurance policy, we do not charge you extra at renewal even if you’ve made a claim. We give all our customers a 25% discount at renewal.

MULTI-BIKE

We offer a 60% multi-bicycle discount on all additional pedal cycles, a single policy can be used for up to £50,000 combined bicycle value.

CRASH DAMAGE

Crash damage is likely excluded on your home insurance and almost certainly if you’re competing. With Yellow Jersey’s bicycle insurance you’re covered.

DNA+

Making a thief’s job harder is the best thing you can do to protect your bicycle, which is why we give you a free DNA+ bicycle security marking kit worth £36 with your policy. The forensic marking kit will prove your bike is stolen property if taken by a thief, and acts as a strong deterrent.

HANDLE THE VANDALS

We’ll make sure everything is up to scratch if your bicycle is damaged through vandalism.

HOME & AWAY

Whether your bicycle is stolen from home, work or elsewhere you’re covered – even if you lend your bicycle to a member of your family who lives with you.

ZERO DEPRECIATION

We do not devalue bicycles after any period of time. The price you paid for your bicycle is the price we will insure it for, and we will always replace damages with an equivalent new version or pay for the full repair costs.

MEDICAL COVER

All of our Bicycle Insurance packages cover you for Physio, Dental and Permanent injury.

PRO TEAM QUALITY

Yellow Jersey are the official supplier to the British Triathlon Federation, we insure Team Wiggins among others, and are proud sponsors of Canyon Eisberg and Jodie Stimpson

Whilst crash damage is covered across the board, Racing is not covered in either the Essentials or Performance packages
