The e-bike revolution
Sales of e-bikes are soaring. Ride 100 metres on one and you’ll quickly understand why. E-bikes don’t need costly charging infrastructure, dramatically extend riding range, and they’re masses of fun to ride. Here are 15 questions to ask before buying an e-bike.
Do I need insurance for my e-bike?
E-bikes are expensive to replace and attractive to thieves. Every ETA insurance policy includes theft & accidental cover, no-quibble battery theft cover and Cycle Rescue breakdown cover plus many other benefits. Read a full list of everything we include as standard.
The ethical choice
The ETA was established in 1990 as an ethical provider of green, reliable travel services. Over 30 years on, we continue to offer cycle insurance , breakdown cover and mobility scooter insurance while putting concern for the environment at the heart of all we do.
The Good Shopping Guide judges us to be the UK’s most ethical provider.

Only an hour from home & as I’m going through a transitional cycling phase it’d be good to see my e-options to keep me riding.

E-bikes have enormous potential to not only extend the range conventional cycling can cover, but is also a game changer for those with medical conditions which may make riding a conventional bike difficult or impossible. Plus you can cycle to a job that requires smart and comfortable attire and arrive without breaking sweat. For anyone living in an area with very steep hills, e-bikes come into their own as one can effortlessly climb such steep hills.

I’ll be in London visiting an old friend, so there’s a couple of old codgers who would love the tickets! Used to go to Eastway in the old days š š“āāļøš“āāļø
