Hello, I'm new here so be gentle! My partners bicycle got stolen over night and so I've logged a theft with the local police and put a claim in via my house insurance (Endsleigh... we paid extra for bikes). The bike is a Specialised Globe -hybrid - really good spec but we bought it second hand so could only insure it for a little more than we paid for it. (bought for £108, insured for £150). Luckily, I paid with Paypal so have receipts etc. I understand the insurance are only going to pay for I said it was worth - however they've put me in touch with an online company to choose a new bike from and there's only one within this price bracket and it's gash and it's a mountain bike. His was a lightweight hybrid. Will I be able to persuade the insurance to just give us cash towards a 2nd hand bike? There's a few on Ebay and he'd must prefer one of those to a bulky mountain bike!! Thanks in advance, Kayla *hoping whoever stole this bike gets an anal fissure from the seat!*
