Smart Marmotte Insurance: Ride in peace of mind.
We have chosen to offer you quality electric bikes. They are recent, robust and prepared for intense practice, but a fall or misuse can lead to a broken item and therefore to repair or replacement of a part. Count 6000€ for an adult e-MTB from our shop. In case of breakage, count between 30€ and 300€ for a repair or a change of part (and more rarely up to 1000€ if the frame is affected). So if there is any breakage, it is better to have followed the Smart Marmotte.
Examples of breakage (yes, it happened to us)
The most frequent breakage. A simple fall that bends or breaks a brake lever. Depending on the model of the bike, count 30€ for the item to change. Reduced to 10€ with insurance.
Ah, a classic of our less delicate customers… A sudden pedal stroke when you are on a low gear and clac! 35€. Reduced to 10€ with insurance.
Aouch, this one is already more painful. A rear derailleur on our 12-speed bikes costs on average 95€. Reduced to 10€ with insurance.
A misplaced fall and it is not only the brake lever that jumps… A full brake (front often) from Magura (MT5 or equivalent) costs 99€. Reduced to 10€ with insurance.
A large rock hitting the frame or a (very) badly placed fall can twist the rear triangle of the bike frame. On average, 250€. Reduced to 25€ with insurance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Because you are on vacation and dealing with worries is not on your agenda! There’s no need to pay for unplanned repairs, it’s better to spend the vacation budget on a nice gourmet escape on bike (or a delicious jar of jam from Le Grand Bornand).
Are you booking your rental or guided tour online? Want to add Smart Marmotte Insurance? Nothing could be easier. Choose the product of your choice and the desired date, and check the “Insurance” box. The rate is automatically calculated and added to your order.
At the time of your departure on the bike, we activate the insurance and mention it on the rental contract of the guiding contract. As soon as you return, we check the bikes. If everything is ok for us, we end the insurance together. Otherwise, in case of breakage, a deductible of 10% of the amount will be asked at our office (10€ minimum).
Of course. Is there is a problem, you are 90% covered. A real plus for a serene stay in the mountains.
No, even if you take the insurance you will have to leave a deposit (1000€ by bank print).
