What is Cyclescheme?
Cyclescheme is an initiative that allows you to spread the cost of your new e-bike and accessories, directly from your salary, usually over a 12-month period. And, if that wasn't enough, you also save up to 42% on the cost too!
How does it work?
Your employer purchases your chosen bike for you, which you pay back directly from your gross salary. By having payments taken from your gross salary, you pay less tax and national insurance. So you can save 42% on a new bike for work!
