Looking for advice – insurance claim or repair in Germany?

Hey everyone,

I signed up for Feather bike insurance on May 5, and the very next day (May 6) my VanMoof E-Shifter broke with error code 44.

Since then, I’ve only been able to ride in 1st gear, which is honestly no fun at all. 😩

I’m wondering:

Should I try to file a claim through the insurance?

Or should I just go ahead and get it repaired myself?

I’m considering sending it to Revotronics for repair – has anyone here had experience with them?

Or would you recommend switching to the 2-speed conversion instead?

Appreciate any advice you’ve got – thanks in advance!
