Insurance for your electric bicycle

E-bikes are popular in Switzerland. Compared to a traditional bicycle, an e-bike is much more expensive. Prices for electric bicycles range from CHF 1,000 to CHF 10,000.

The financial loss in the event of theft is huge. In Switzerland alone, more than 40,000 bicycles and e-bikes are stolen each year. E-bike insurance protects you not only in the event of theft, but also loss, vandalism and damage of any kind.
