If you have a valuable bike (over£1000) there's a vicious
catch-22 relating to bike locks and insurance.
In order to get insurance cover you have to undertake to
use a Sold Secure Gold rated lock, most of which weigh in
at 2 kilos+ which is totally impractical on a tour or even
a long day ride.
So is it worth insuring at all? Would a better option be to
take great care, always lock with at least one strong lock,
and to stay with the bike as much as possible and save money
on the insurance and the lock.
What experiences have people had of dealing with claims?
