About Pedal Cover

Pedal Cover is a specialist insurance intermediary focused exclusively on the cycling community. Based in the Vale of Glamorgan, we arrange bicycle, home (with cycle cover), and cycle travel insurance for cyclists across the UK.

Our products are designed around how cyclists actually ride, store, and travel with their bikes, rather than generic household or travel assumptions. We work with established UK insurers to provide clear, appropriate cover for different types of cyclists and households.

Pedal Cover launched in 2014 and continues to develop specialist insurance products in response to the changing needs of cyclists, from dedicated bicycle insurance to cycle-focused home and travel cover.
