Advanced tracking and insurance combine to fight bike theft in Drammen

BikeFinder Success Story Icon

There have been a lot of bike thefts in Drammen lately, but thanks to BikeFinder we’ve been able to help riders get their bikes back. Here’s one of those success stories with Andre who got his bike stolen in Drammen during the night:

Here is Andre’s story:

“On September 24, 2025, I woke up to find my bike missing. I immediately called the police, shared the live GPS location from my BikeFinder, threw on my jacket, and set off. What followed was a real cat-and-mouse chase, address after address, until the signal finally pinpointed and stayed in an apartment block.

It turned out to be municipal housing, so I contacted the staff and together with the police, we went inside. Thanks to BikeFinder, we found my bike! Unfortunately, it suffered significant damage.

This is where I was especially grateful for choosing BikeFinder’s optional insurance. It’s incredibly affordable and turned out to be absolutely worth it. All the damages are fully covered, and best of all, I have my bike back.”

In Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Germany, BikeFinder offers optional bike theft insurance with no deductible and no depreciation, through Berkley.

Berkley is a major international insurance group with a long history. The company works through trusted partners rather than selling directly to individuals, which makes the brand less visible to end consumers. Still, Berkley is one of the world’s leading insurers.

“All the damages are fully covered, and best of all,
I have my bike back.”
