Cycle to Work is a government scheme, aimed at making cycling more affordable and accessible for commuters and leisure riders. It's a simple three-step process, which will help you save up to 39% on a brand new bike, cycling accessories or a combination of the two!
You can take advantage of Cycle to Work in any of our stores.
Simply browse our range of bikes, accessories and clothing and decide on a package that suits you.
Your Cycle to Work allowance can be used against a bike, accessories, or a combination of the two. Accessories such as a cycle helmet and hi-vis clothing would be a sensible choice, while a pannier rack or basket will make taking your packed lunch to work a doddle.
You will need to request a quote from our customer service team. Please just contact us to get started.
We recommend you reserve your bike as soon as you’ve received your quote, by paying a small deposit. This ensures you don’t miss out on the bike you’ve picked out, and also means you’ll get your bike quicker!
Once you’ve chosen your bike and gear, you need to check with your HR / Finance department whether your company is already enrolled on a Cycle to Work scheme. We accept vouchers / certificates from the following Cycle to Work providers:
You just need to request a quote from us, to present to your employer. This can be done either by popping into one of our stores, or contacting us

We’ll redeem your voucher with your Cycle to Work provider and hand over your bike, fully built and ready to ride. Some providers allow us to release the bike immediately on receipt of your voucher; with others, you may need to allow a few days’ processing time. Rest assured that from our side, we’ll be working as fast as we can to get your bike to you!
If you’re a UK employee, Cycle to Work allows you to spread the cost of a new bike and equipment, by paying in instalments taken directly from your wage. The payments are taken out of your gross wage and your Tax & NI contributions are then worked out based on your new lower gross wage, saving you money on your new bike and equipment.
You’ll enter into a hire agreement with your employer, who owns the bike for the period of the agreement. At the end of this period, you then have the option of buying your bike or continuing to use it while you work for the company. If you decide to purchase the bike, the balance you owe will be based on a percentage of how much the bike was worth at the time you took out the Cycle to Work scheme.
With the Cycle to Work scheme you can get vouchers to spend on:
