Review of the Laka, Cycle insurance:

Excellent platform with easy to understand options

Excellent platform with easy to understand options and good value for money, like a 50% discount for insuring 2 bikes Reviewed on: 2nd August 2024

Feel good insurance

5
Fair insurance, great service, knowledgable staff. I've never felt compelled to recommend an insurer before, but I have recommended Laka to many. I've been forunate that I haven't had to claim, but know someone who has and it was just a stellar experience. Gone is the knot of uncertainty that usually comes with insurance, I feel confident I'm protected by my Laka cover. IMO this is Insurance the way it should be! Reviewed on: 31st July 2020

Focus Cayo

I joined Laka as a friend said they were very pro-cyclists and that we can get initially £25 discount, so I decided to take the plunge. After several months I hadn't used it for any reason but 3 weeks ago, I was on club ride and suddenly the first two riders were avoiding water on the side of the road and moved to the middle but as the day was soo cold it was freezing weather and the entire group slid. I ended up with the most damage and wasn't able to even ride on or home. So taxi it was! I took photos, contacted Damir and the rest was soo easy, they were always there when I sent a message and arrange a local bike company to collect and repair, within a week they managed to fully repair and I was back on the road. Nothing else but praise for this company. I highly recommend as I usually ride every weekend and with the knowledge that Laka will always be there if I have an accident. Thanks Damir, you and the team are Fab! Wai Reviewed on: 11th February 2020

Great concept

There are many new insurance startups but few that are actually doing something different. I am a big fan of the Laka model! Reviewed on: 17th September 2019

Simple and elegant cycle insurance

I've not yet had to claim, but in setting up and administering my policy, everything from Laka is simple, clear and hassle-free; I also really like the community vibe. Reviewed on: 16th September 2019

The smoothest and simplest insurance out there

Insurance. What a mind boggle most of the time. LAKA’s digital experience was the simplest and least jargon insurance site I’ve ever seen. Fair pricing and fully clarity. What more could you want. Reviewed on: 15th September 2019

Laka is much more cost effective than conventional cycle insurance . You have a monthly cap on your premium but i have never paid the maximum cap. Really easy to set up.. Reviewed on: 10th September 2019

Brilliant and Easy

5
Easy to complete application process with very quick response, yet to make a claim but every step of the process so far would suggest that if needed it would be simple enough. Reviewed on: 9th September 2019

First rate service makes all the difference

5
It's been refreshing to deal with an insurance company who actually understands me. I've dealt with big companies all my life and I must say it's about time someone did something with us cyclists in mind...and to not be treated like just another number. Needless to say I'd highly recommend Reviewed on: 9th September 2019
