Have You Got Good Electric Bike Insurance

When a student son or daughter leaves home to go off to college, very often their parents' help to subsidize their expenses to a certain extend by allowing them to include the contents of their student homes and such things as bikes on their own current home policy.
This was not the case with one student, who recently had her individually insured cycle stolen whilst she was in the college. She had locked her cycle with a good, secure lock and gone in to lectures. When she returned an hour or so later, the bike had been stolen. Although annoyed and inconvenienced by the matter, she was consoled by the fact that she had had the forethought to arrange insurance through a well known company who marketed themselves to the student population. The bike had been a special present from her parents and she had taken great care with it, but there's a limit to the care you can take to something as portable as a cycle.
When the time came to make a claim, however, she was met with something of a shock - the insurer wouldn't cover her claim because she hadn't removed the front wheel and saddle!
