How to Protect Your Electric Bike from Theft

Plan how you will secure your e-bike before leaving it in public or shared storage. Start with a suitable lock, a permitted fixed object and a place where the bike will not block access.

This guide covers locking, parking, keeping bike records and checking insurance conditions. No lock guarantees protection, so use several practical measures together.

GPS trackers are good options for attaching to bikes, and with the applications, the owner can trace the bike and alert the police. However, the drawback of GPS trackers is that the police usually don't spend much time looking for your e-bike.

So far, two necessary ways of theft protection have been introduced, neither of which can be enough, and even both at the same time cannot make you feel relieved. Here is where insurance matters, something that can not only protect it from theft but also keep it safe from accidental damage. You should find the best e-bike insurance you need because these bikes are expensive to buy, and without the right insurance, you may have to pay a lot to repair damage or raise money to buy another one after a theft. 

However, even the best insurance policies will not cover everything. One of the exclusions is theft where you have not taken appropriate action to secure your bike properly, and most insurers accept a claim only when the bike has been protected using an approved lock.

The most frequent and secure ways have been introduced and we hope you enjoy riding your electric bikes and keep them safe for years.
