Transparent and flexible bike insurance

I’ve used Laka since it started to insure my bike and is a highly transparent and flexible service. I had to pause cycling for a couple months and was very easy to downgrade my cover to save on costs. Reviewed on: 16th October 2023

Giving back to the cycle community

Always tell people about Laka insurance. I love that it feels like a cycle community and what I pay fluctuates dependent on the needs of the community. Feels like giving back to the sport, whilst caring for my bike! Reviewed on: 2nd September 2024

Peace of Mind

Was unlucky enough to have my bike stolen in November, but wasn't worried at any point about Laka coming through. The emails in the process of getting a bike replacement were very tactful and prompt. Laka gives me an incredible peace of mind at a reasonable value, can't imagine going with another bicycle insurance provider. Reviewed on: 2nd September 2024

Hassle free. Great transparency. They insured my bike while others did not want to. Kudos for them. Reviewed on: 2nd September 2024

Excellent insurance

5
Recently needed to make a claim for damage while on a ride. Was able to make the claim online simply and quickly. The claim handler got in touch with a nice clear email on next steps. They then communicated with my bike mechanic to get the extra information needed. Once they had agreed to the claim money was in my account within 48 hours and I was back on the road quickly. Excellent service highly recommend. Reviewed on: 2nd September 2024
