Save up to 47% on a new bike & spread the cost

plus many more...

What is the Cycle to Work Scheme?

The Cycle to Work Scheme is a UK government-backed initiative that helps you get a new bike and accessories tax-efficiently through your employer.

Instead of paying upfront, you spread the cost through your salary, saving money on tax and National Insurance.

How much can I save?

The Cycle to Work scheme lets you spread the cost of a new bike while making meaningful savings along the way.

Because payments are taken from your salary before tax, the overall cost is lower than buying outright.

FAQs

The scheme uses something called salary sacrifice:

  • You agree to give up a portion of your salary
  • You pay less tax and National Insurance
  • That’s where the savings come from

You’re not limited to just a bike. You can include:

Road, mountain, hybrid & electric bikes
Helmets, lights & locks
✔ Clothing & commuting accessories

(E-bikes are included as long as they meet UK regulations.)

Repayments are usually spread over 12 months, however it can depend of the scheme provider your employer works with. 

No. The scheme works as a salary sacrifice and deductions are only taken on a PAYE basis. 

At the end of your agreement:

  • You can usually keep the bike for a small fee
  • Or extend the agreement depending on your provider
