WHAT IT MEANS
TO BE BACKED BY LAKA

Insurance Flipped

We won't charge you a fixed sum. Instead we calculate your monthly contributions retrospectively - up to a max capped amount - based on the collective's claims that month.

The 80/20 rule

80% of your money goes straight back into the collective: fixing, replacing, helping, whatever. And the other 20% keeps our wheels spinning.

Pack mentality

Being part of Laka means committing to look after yourself and your stuff for the sake of the group. Think team first.

Got your back

When shit does hit the fan, we’ve got you. Claims are handled by experts and usually agreed within a day. With no depreciation or excess.

Never tied down

We're over annual contracts tying you down. And we’re sure you are too. So if you want to leave, you can anytime.

WHAT'S COVERED

Theft

The big one. Cargo bikes, e-cargo bikes, batteries and accessories are covered against theft at home and when out & about. Just make sure you use a Sold Secure Gold Rated Lock or better.

Damage and Vandalism

Whether it's a traffic accident or even damage in transit by a third party, you're covered for any accidental damage to your cargo bike and accessories. And if someone intentionally breaks your gear, we'll get it fixed or replaced pronto.

Loss

Don't be at loss if an airline or courier loses your bike or gear - you're covered with Laka.

Emergency cash

We include £200 to make life easier after an accident or theft. Might be a temporary rental bike to get around or even a taxi home if you find yourself stranded somewhere.

Legal assistance

Cover for legal costs for pursuing a personal injury case after an accident that wasn’t your fault. Be it a driver or pothole.

Travel for 120 days

Cycling abroad? Your gear is covered globally for up to 120 consecutive days. If you're ever planning to travel for longer than that, let us know and we can look at your options.

In or on your car

Breaking a car window is a lot easier than breaking a bike lock. So while we do cover bikes stored in and on cars, it's best if they're locked to something not easily removable with a Sold Secure Gold lock, or covered out of plain sight.
