In 2 weeks I'm off to Mallorca for with my road bike for the first holiday abroad since before Covid.
Can anyone recommend a company with bike cover up to £5k?

Yellow Jersey is who I’ve used to cover travel and bike.

I used yellow jersey recently for travel and bike, luckily I didn't need to claim on it but it offered some of the best cover for the price.

There are different levels of cover, you don't need the top one unless racing IIRC.

Mine was much less than that (not much over £100) for a more expensive bike (albeit only 5 days).  You can also get a 5-10% discount code usually with a bit of searching.

EDIT: Just putting in a £5K bike (bike only cover) for 17 days on Performance level cover gives a £113 quote.....

Mine was £200 odd for 10 days. Family of 4, all the medical and repatriation options as well as theft cover for the bikes. I suspect bike value has a big difference for the theft portion.
