Cycle To Work Schemes

Electric Bike Cycle To Work Schemes

The Cycle to Work Schemes are available for all types of electric bikes. So whether you are looking for a foldable e-bike to take on the train or store neatly at the office, an electric mountain bike to ride over the trails to work, an e-road bike to take the fastest route in or a hybrid electric bike to give you the choice of route, you take. The Cycle to Work schemes can save you a significant amount.

The Cycle to Work Schemes has been developed to help more people afford to buy an e-bike to ride to work, getting more of us cycling and fewer cars on the road. This great initiative will benefit the environment, help us stay fit and healthy, and is worthwhile financially. Here is our lowdown on how the Scheme works and how to access it

What’s all the fuss and why should I bother?

The B2W Schemes are a tax-saving initiative from HMRC to get people to travel by bike. Significant savings for electric bike buyers of up to 45% discount on your bike and accessories. Allows you to spread the cost of the payments over a time to suit you.
You repay your bike by means of a salary sacrifice. This means you save whatever level of tax and national insurance you pay. There is no interest to pay or additional charges. It's a win win!
As a registered dealer for many of the top C2W schemes, we can help you find suitable eBike and accessories, plus simplify the C2W Scheme by assisting you with any questions and processing the purchase.

Halfords Cycle2Work Scheme

Halfords introduced their own Cycle2Work Scheme called Cycle2Work. It is widely used throughout the UK. Cycle2Work is part of a government initiative that encourages more people to commute by bike, enabling people to make healthier choices and reduce the UK's carbon footprint.

NB: When processing Halford's Cycle2work vouchers we apply a 7.5% surcharge when accepting them against full-price items. This surcharge will need to be paid separately and cannot be included in the voucher total.

Vivup Cycle to Work Alliance

Vivup joined forces with Cyclescheme, Halfords, Evans and Cycle Solutions – leading providers of the UK’s Cycle to Work scheme. The Cycle to Work Alliance is a coalition of these market leaders and represents approximately 80 per cent of scheme usage.

The alliance works hard to promote the narrative around Cycle to Work and has continued to focus on the health, environmental and productivity benefits of this widely used scheme, enabling cost-effective access to employees across the UK – over 1 million employees have participated to date.

Cycle Solutions

Cycle Solutions are fully approved providers of the Cycle to Work Scheme, making it easy for employers to deliver the benefit to those within their organisation.

Giving employees a cost-effective way of acquiring tax-free bikes and accessories through the company they work for, without any upfront costs, the government-backed initiative operates all over the UK.

Bike2Work

Bike2Work believe bikes and their benefits are for everyone. So for the last 12 years, they've been working with businesses big and small to get more people cycling to and from work. And with no limits on how much employees can spend on a new bike and equipment, it’s working.
