Cycle to Work made simple

Looking to buy a new bike through your employer’s Cycle to Work scheme? We can help you choose the right bike, accessories and setup, then guide you through the next steps.

What is the Cycle to Work scheme?

Cycle to Work is a government-backed employee benefit that helps make cycling more affordable. In most cases, your employer buys or leases the bike and equipment on your behalf, and you repay the cost through your salary over an agreed period.

Because payments are usually taken from your gross salary, many riders can make savings compared with buying a bike outright. The exact saving depends on your employer, scheme provider and personal tax position.

Whether you are commuting every day, replacing short car journeys, or looking for a more flexible way to invest in a better bike, Berkshire Cycles can help you get started.

Already have a scheme?

Send us your employer name, scheme provider and the type of bike you are interested in. We will confirm the next steps and help you put together a suitable quote.

Why use Cycle to Work?

Save money
