Ebike Insurance Experts

If you need to make an electric bike 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.

Electric Bicycle Insurance Claims & Renewals

We don’t believe you should be put off making an insurance claim just because you’re worried your premiums might go up. With Yellow Jersey ebike insurance, we don’t charge you extra at renewal, even if you’ve made a claim. When you renew, you’ll get the same base price as a new customer, but we’ll even apply a 25% renewal loyalty discount to your premium.

Crash Damage
Crash damage is often excluded from home insurance, but with Yellow Jersey’s electric bike insurance, you’re covered. Essentials protects your e-bike during everyday rides, Performance extends this to European trips and organised rides like charity events, and Ultimate provides crash damage cover worldwide, including UK courier cycling.
DNA+

If we can discourage bicycle theft, we can lower premiums for everyone. We give new annual bicycle insurance customers a free DNA+ bicycle security marking kit worth £36 with their policy. These make stolen bicycles traceable and prove that they are stolen property making them less desirable for thieves.

Handle The Vandals

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

Home & Away

Whether your electric bike is stolen from home, work, or elsewhere, you’re covered—even if you lend it to a family member who lives with you. All we ask is that you follow our straightforward bicycle locking requirements.

Zero Depreciation

We don’t depreciate the value of an electric bicycle, so the price you paid is the value we will cover your bike for, regardless of how long you’ve owned it.

Medical Cover

All of our electric bike insurance packages cover you for physio, dental and permanent injury.

 
Trusted Quality

Yellow Jersey is proud to partner with the  London Cycling Campaign (LCC) and Singletrack Magazine, supporting riders who use e-bikes for commuting, touring, and off-road adventures. 

Cover abroad

We provide electric bike insurance for households and enthusiasts, ensuring your ebike is protected whether you’re riding in the city, on European trails, or enjoying MTB-style adventures in places like Morzine.

Public Liability
All three electric bike insurance tiers include cycling liability cover up to £2 million, protecting you and your family against third-party claims while riding any insured e-bike. Our Performance and Ultimate policies also extend public liability to the named policyholder when riding any bike, such as a holiday hire bike or Santander Cycles. We believe this is a key part of any e-bike insurance policy, which is why it’s included as standard for everyone.

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