About Super73
Founded in 2016 and based in Irvine, California, Super73 started as a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign with a $25,000 fundraising goal. A nostalgic design that made the bike look more like a cafe racer motorcycle, and a viral video campaign managed to secure over $441,000 from backers. As of today, the company produces several models, ranging from commuter-oriented to full suspension, off road going models.
Most popular Super73 models
Super73 has 3 distinct model lines: S line comprises simple S1 and a more powerful S2. The R line includes two very capable full-suspension bikes, R and the upgraded RX. The Z line features simple and modern looking Z and ZX bikes with lightweight alloy frames, and mechanical disc brakes.
S1
S1 is the original offering from Super73 and it still is very popular. It has everything you need and nothing you don’t: it has a simple frame, front suspension, a comfy seat, and no shifters. What you get is a raw, powerful e-bike that can take you to work and back the long way, with a smile on your face.

R
Riding on 20 inch fat all-terrain tires, this go-anywhere e-bike oozes quality and design. It can operate in Class 1, 2, and 3 modes, so it can be ridden on bike trails and go offroad, in Unlimited mode which provides 1,200 watts of normal and 2,000 peak power, enough to propel you up the steepest of hills.

RX
Instantly recognizable as a Super73, RX is equipped with a 960 watt-hour battery that gives it 38 miles of range in the most motor-assisted of the four power modes. If you wanted to hyper mile this bike, you’d get 75 miles of range in the full pedal assist mode.

Whether you ride the tarmac or shred the gnar, dodge pedestrians, or cruise the beach, you're a member of a special club of people who appreciate the world in a primal way – on two wheels. To keep you rolling, we address the specific risks associated with your discipline.
Coverages and Features
Velosurance offers must-have protection such as accidental damage, theft, or loss in transit. Each policy can be customized by adding additional coverages such as liability protection, uninsured motorist, and medical payments.
Total loss by theft
Bicycles are very easy to steal and equally difficult to recover, and even a hefty U-lock doesn’t guarantee your bike is still there when you return. Velosurance provides peace of mind if it is stolen or damaged in the process.
Medical payments
If you’re hurt and require medical attention, our policy's optional purchase medical payments will take care of your medical bills, up to the selected limit. The policy medical payments are paid directly to you to supplement the deductible of your personal health insurance policy.
Any crash or accidental damage
Our policy will pay to replace your ride if it is accidentally damaged and beyond repair, including damage that occurs while being carried on or in your vehicle. If the damage can be repaired, we will pay all the costs associated with the bike's repair, including tax, labor, and shipping, minus the deductible. Cosmetic damage that does not affect safety is excluded.
Damage or loss in transit
Bikes often get damaged in transit by personal vehicles, airlines, or courier services. Filing a claim with the airlines and courier services is a notoriously difficult process with a questionable outcome. We cover the insured bicycle for loss or damage while it's on its way to or from your destination by air or road. Even if it falls off a vehicle rack or is hit in a rear-end accident, it is covered, no arguments.
Our shop or yours
When filing a claim, you’ll need to provide a repair estimate from a repair shop. We have a nationwide network of partner bike shops that are familiar with our process and can help you speed through your claim. If you prefer to work with your favorite shop, that works too.
Gear and apparel
If you go down in a crash, we cover the bike as well as your apparel, such as helmet, shoes, glasses, or riding kit that are torn up, and pay up to $500 per accident and $1,000 per year. Spare parts that are not installed, such as a spare wheelset, are also covered up to $500 per loss and $1,000 per year.
Your choice of lock
We do not dictate what type or brand of lock must be used to protect your ride from theft – you are welcome to use any lock that you trust. The best security is provided by metal locks combined with a high-quality chain. Securing your ride to a solid and immovable object, such as a bike rack, with a high-quality lock will send the thief onto the one secured with a more vulnerable lock.
No depreciation
Depreciation is a hidden deductible that increases every year and is applied if the bike is stolen or totaled. No one is ever happy with an Actual Cash Value insurance settlement: the bike is first devalued, and then a deductible is applied, resulting in a reimbursement that is far less than the cost of a replacement. We reimburse you, without depreciation, for the cost of a replacement bike that is of like, kind, and quality similar to your totaled bike.
24/7/365 coverage
We cover the insured bike(s) at all times, anywhere in the USA and Canada, and can be extended worldwide on request. There are no exclusions on the time of day or limitations on how long a bike can be stored away from home. 24/7/365 means every minute of every day, no matter where or when.
Standalone bike insurance
Our standalone policy does not piggyback on coverage provided by the policies you may already have, such as home insurance. A claim will not reflect on your insurance score and will not affect your rates with other insurance carriers. With home insurance rates in the USA going up every year, it’s prudent to reserve it for when you really need it because no matter how expensive your bike is, it’s a lot cheaper than a kitchen fire or a basement flood.
Uninsured motorist coverage
One of the scariest things that can happen to a cyclist is getting hit by a car. This coverage will pay for medical expenses, physical therapy, mental health services, lost wages, and other expenses that arise from a bicycle-car accident.
Permissive use
You can lend the bike to anyone you choose, and it will be covered. The bike and the person riding it are covered as if it were you riding it – this includes theft and crash damage as well as any purchased optional coverages.
Why Velosurance is best for your bicycle
Not all types of insurance are created equal. Velosurance levels the playing field by offering stand-alone bike insurance, where claims won’t affect your homeowner's or renter’s policy premiums.

Velosurance story
Velosurance is a national insurance program founded by two avid cyclists, Dave Williams and Denis Voitenko in response to the insurance needs of bicycle riders nationwide.
It all started over tacos
One very rainy day at a local taco joint in Fort Lauderdale we started discussing how badly home and renters policies insured bicycles. We knew there had to be a better way so we set about finding out how we could take a traditional piece of insurance and make it better, much better. On that wet day over tacos, Velosurance was founded.
We partnered with Markel American Insurance Company, an A.M. Best, A rated, US insurance company, and a leader in recreational insurance, to offer a multi-risk bicycle insurance policy providing protection to all types of cyclists, and with none of the silly restrictions that other insurance wants to place on riders.
Nationwide coverage
Velosurance provides our policyholders with nationwide service when a damaged bike needs repair or replacement. Our policyholders are free to choose their preferred service location.
Our mission
The Velosurance mission is to be fair to everyone involved, and to offer our best advice to clients so they can make an educated decision about their bicycle insurance coverage. We also like to ride as much as possible.
We are riders too
Bicycle prices increase every year and cyclists who are serious about their sport are spending big money on high value bikes. Other forms of insurance, like homeowners and renters insurance, do a poor job insuring high value bicycles so we founded Velosurance to fix that.
Velosurance provides a stand-alone, no bike value depreciation, bicycle insurance policy to replace the cobbled together, sub standard coverages offered by traditional insurance.
We are cyclists just like you, and we understand that when your bike gets damaged in an accident you want the shortest possible downtime. We make it our mission to see that your claim check arrives before the repair parts do and you get back pedaling as soon as you want to.
