Yep, if it was used, they give you a price quote for a used bike. Usually 10-20% off of new if in good condition. Then you factor in the deductable on top of that, and yeah it cuts off 25-50% of the cost of replacing it new.

I work for an "insurer" and deal with bike claims all the time, I base on a new for old and IF I can get the same bike back I will, exact same. If i can not do this, I tell the insured to go buy it and I pay them back ,,,or,,I pay their shop direct.
Thats a better way of doing things.

I owned a Trailstar a couple years back, I found the geometry not to be aggressive enough. But the frame looked great!
