Welcome to Bike to Work, we are here to help you take advantage of the Government initiative offering tax free bikes for cycling to work.
Who We Are
Using the Bike to Work scheme, your employer can help you obtain a brand new bike and safety equipment now with no scheme limit. You can use a salary sacrifice arrangement over a hire period, at the end of the hire period the owner of the bike may choose to offer the employee ownership of the bike for a market value at that time. That means you can save up to 42% of the retail price of bike and equipment. Your employer also makes savings to encourage them.
What are the benefits to the employee
There are a host of benefits available to employees should their workplace choose to launch a cycle to work scheme, these include:
- Employees will qualify for a tax saving of between 32% and 42% off the retail cost of bikes and accessories.
- Monthly repayments with no finance charges.
- Make your salary go further each month.
- Save on monthly fuel, parking, car and train fare bills.
Bike to Work are able to offer employees a huge choice of different brands, these include mountain bikes, hybrids and road bikes to name a few. We can also supply all the necessary accessories and cycling equipment through our network of dealers, to ensure employees are safe when riding to work.
Enjoy the health benefits of commuting to work.
Expert staff are available each day to inform employees of the latest cycle equipment and advise them on the perfect bike for them.
Bikes and accessories can be delivered directly to the door of the employee.
Your Employer saves money too
There are savings to be made for Employers too, National Insurance savings, reduced parking problems, savings in parking tax, and a healthier, fitter workforce. On the microsite website we create for your company, our frequently asked questions should cover most queries on the general running of the scheme, and you can use our partner finder to see where your nearest participating shops are.
