Cycle to Work Scheme
Cycle to Work Scheme – Save Money, Get Fitter, Go Greener
The Cycle to Work Scheme is a simple way to get a brand‑new bike and accessories while saving up to 42% on the cost.
It’s a government‑backed employee benefit that helps you swap car or public transport commutes for a healthier, cheaper, and more sustainable way to travel.
At The Endurance Hub, we work with leading providers including Green Commute Initiative, Cyclescheme, and Cycle Solutions, making it quick and easy for both employees and employers to get started.
How It Works – Step by Step
1️⃣ Choose your bike and accessories
Pick your dream bike from us – whether that’s a lightweight road bike, a high‑performance e‑bike, or a practical commuter. You can also include safety accessories like helmets, lights, and locks.
2️⃣ Apply through your employer
Your workplace needs to be signed up to the Cycle to Work Scheme (if they’re not already). Once approved, you request the total value of the bike and accessories.
3️⃣ Salary sacrifice agreement
The cost is spread over 12–36 months (depending on the provider) and deducted from your gross salary before tax. This means:
You pay less for your bike (up to 42% cheaper)
Payments are interest‑free
You won’t feel a big hit to your take‑home pay
4️⃣ Get your bike and start riding
Once your application is approved, you collect your new bike from us and can start enjoying your new commute straight away.
5️⃣ Ownership at the end
At the end of the hire period, you can usually keep your bike by paying a small final fee or extending the agreement – the bike is yours to keep and enjoy.
