Again and again it can be observed that particularly high-quality bicycles and e-bikes are very popular with thieves. This is also evident in the region, where the police report on an increase in bicycle thefts. Especially in recent months, incidents have occurred in which e-bikes have been stolen from unprotected garages or parking spaces. This increase should be noticed! The owners of such valuable bikes in particular should worry about suitable security measures.

Caution is better than forbearance

Pour qu'il n'y ait aucun incident similaire à Bad Dürkheim, la police vous recommande de sécuriser des vélos de haute qualité avec des serrures stables et de les accueillir dans des chambres verrouillables. E-bikes in particular are popular destinations for thieves due to their high value. A good hint for all those who want to protect themselves from such a loss is to take out a special bicycle or e-bike insurance. This not only offers protection against theft, but also covers other risks that are generally not included in conventional household insurance.

Professional e-bike insurance can offer higher compensation than household insurance in the event of theft. Le montant de la rémunération n'est pas basé sur la somme assurée, mais sur la valeur réelle de la roue volée, qui peut être particulièrement importante pour les propriétaires d'un vélo électrique à prix élevé. The choice between reimbursement within the framework of the new value or the time value when taking out insurance should be careful. La nouvelle valeur rembourse le montant d'une nouvelle roue équivalente, tandis que la valeur actuelle représente la valeur réelle au moment du vol, ce qui est souvent plus bas en raison de l'âge et de l'usure. This is another aspect that is important for all those who fear the loss of their e-bike.

The Bad Dürkheim police appeal to all citizens of being vigilant and reporting suspects or vehicles immediately. No doubt, the security of property is a topic that affects us all. If you love your bike, you should also secure it well and, in the best case, also insure it.
