Insurance Insurance is a bit of a thorny subject, so we thought it best to share what we know on here. The sad reality is that bicycle theft is rife. Covering yourself against the financial and emotional pain of a lost bicycle seems like a good idea to us based on the prices we've seen.

                           Our bicycles cost £495 or £580. This may sound like a  lot, but by bicycle standards it isn't. As such, a Kennedy City Bicycle  is relatively inexpensive to insure. Insurance providers have different  pre-requisits when it comes to eligibility, but having surveyed the  landscape through our customers **we've found a 10% off part of the Cycle  Guard website (the 10% off is meant for TFL)** - based on the N1 post code  of our workshop this insurance costs about £44 a year. Bearing in mind  this is well under a tenth of the price of the bicycle it seems like a  smart decision to us.

                           The insurance requires you to use a lock with at least a  bronze sold-secure rating for the single speed, and a silver rating for  the two speed. Both the locks we sell are silver so will work for  either bicycle.               

                           So that's where we're at for the moment, but we're  pretty new to insurance so if you have any comments on the above or  recommendations of your own we'd love to hear them on 0207 241 4819 or  <hello@kennedycitybicycles.cc>               

                           On a side note - these forms of insurance don't tend to  include parts, so if you have your saddle stolen you're not covered for  that. As a result, anyone who purchases a Kennedy City Bicycle is  entitled to purchase replacement parts off us at cost price. We've been  there, and we want to make the process of getting back on the road as  easy as possible.

In the event your bike is stolen you could be the one they ask for some tfl staff id as you used a promo code and find you aren't covered all as the shop advised you to save £5...
