Cycling has never been more popular in Belgium! Whether it's for your daily commute, weekend rides, or quick errands, you're part of the growing number of Belgians who have embraced soft mobility. The numbers confirm this trend: more and more cyclists are choosing to protect themselves, with bike insurance policies increasing by an average of 13% last year, according to the latest Assuralia survey.
Since the health crisis, cycling has experienced renewed enthusiasm. Electric bikes, cargo bikes, racing bikes... two-wheelers are multiplying on our streets and often represent a significant investment. But beyond material value, it's your safety and that of other road users that matters most.
As a cyclist, you're not immune to accidents. What happens if you accidentally hit a pedestrian? If you damage a parked car? Or if you cause a group fall during a ride?
Bike liability coverage protects you financially when you involuntarily cause damage to third parties. This guarantee covers:
Without this protection, the financial consequences can be severe. Imagine having to compensate an injured person following an accident for which you're responsible: amounts can quickly reach several thousands of euros.
Electric bike breakdown in the countryside? Puncture during a business trip? Mechanical problem far from home? Bike breakdown assistance is there to get you out of these tricky situations. At SWINZ, this assistance also accompanies you when traveling on foot, by scooter, or step (up to 25 km/h).
This guarantee generally includes:
Particularly useful for electric bikes that can run out of battery or experience technical malfunctions, SWINZ assistance allows you to continue your activities stress-free, wherever you are in Belgium and even up to 30km beyond our borders.
