About us

Collective cover by Laka We exist to rewrite the rules of insurance so it’s something people stand with, not against. That’s why we’re building a collective that gets stronger as it grows, covering each other as we fight against the broken and archaic in the pursuit of better.

    There are MANY reasons to love working at Laka, but 3pm Fridays are definitely a highlight! Just ask Peter Talbot, who took full advantage of the early finish to head off on a bike ride from London to Paris 🇫🇷

    Taking advantage of #Laka 's work perk 3pm Fridays I decided on a bike ride - London 2 Paris in 24hrs (slightly over, but oh well, I'll blame Garmin for getting me lost multiple times). Eurostar banned bikes without a box from Paris, so I took the #Brompton C-Line express all the way, the extra time meant I had plenty of time to make the Newhaven ferry. 310km, 3500m + of climbing with gradients reaching 12%+ and almost 16hrs saddle time I made it - the bike handled the lot with ease. Monday morning I decided to rest and took the train and quickly realised there's only one way to #commute and that's by Brompton! I thoroughly recommend ditching the car or public transport and choose bike.

    GO TEAM 👊 EUROBIKE Show has already kicked off with a bang - here are some insights we've picked up so far: 👑 Recovery is king: Locks are good, but GPS is better. Everyone is after recovery services because, let’s face it, locks can still be broken ⛓️💥Having said that, GPS is only useful if you have a recovery provider to recover the bike. 🛠️ Easier and more affordable repairs are in: From modular and "unbreakable" parts to repair tools and mobile repair services, cyclists can keep their bikes running longer. This ultimately helps make cycling more accessible and lowers its environmental impact. 📦 People want the full package: When it comes to mobility, customers want everything under one roof. Think data, GPS tracking, recovery and insurance. The idea is to keep costs low and logistics easy. 🛡️ Insurance revolution: Bikes are becoming more expensive, customisable and increasingly important for individuals, families and businesses. The last thing you want is to find yourself without your bike. Laka is the only insurance provider that has flipped the traditional insurance model to provide cover for cyclists by cyclists.

    Worried about your E-bike getting stolen? You’re not alone. E-bike theft is on the rise in Europe 🚴♂️ With their high value and expensive components, such as batteries, E-bikes have become prime targets for thieves 🔋 To combat this growing issue, some insurance companies now require built-in Connect or GPS modules for coverage. That's why we've partnered with Koninklijke Gazelle, The Netherlands’ leading bike manufacturer, to offer free theft insurance and advanced smart technology on select models, ensuring your ride is always protected 🛡️ 🔍 Curious about how GPS and Connected modules work?
