Puncture? Lost keys? Flat e-bike battery? Call on Cycle Rescue 24/7

March 11, 2024

Bicycles are supremely dependable machines, but occasionally they do break down. Even the shortest journey comes to an abrupt halt if you can't fix a flat tyre, broken chain or buckled wheel at the roadside. And if you're unlucky enough to lose your bike lock key, your ride home may not begin in the first place.

It's why 30 years ago we launched Cycle Rescue - the UK's first breakdown cover for bicycles.

ETA Cycle Rescue covers all kinds of cycle including trikes and cargo bikes. And if you ride an e-bike, you'll be covered against breakdowns caused by mechanical faults, electrical problems, punctures or a flat battery.

How much does bicycle breakdown cost?

Cycle Rescue costs only £24 per year with no hidden extras.

How does bicycle breakdown cover work?

If you suffer a breakdown (including punctures) while out cycling, or are unable to continue due to an injury, our 24-hour Cycle Rescue team will arrange transport for you and your bicycle to a safe location.

Should your bicycle lock be vandalised, we can send a recovery vehicle to assist you or pay for a locksmith. The same goes for lost keys if you're unable to continue your ride.
