Cycle to Work Schemes at Minster Cycles
Save money, ride more, and commute smarter
A Cycle to Work scheme is one of the most cost-effective ways to buy a bike and cycling equipment in the UK. Designed to encourage healthier, greener commuting, these schemes allow you to spread the cost of a new bike while making significant savings through your salary.
At Minster Cycles, we proudly accept all major Cycle to Work schemes, making it easy for you to choose the bike you want without unnecessary restrictions or hassle.
What is a Cycle to Work scheme?
Cycle to Work schemes are government-backed initiatives that enable employees to purchase bikes and accessories through their employer. Instead of paying upfront, the cost is spread over monthly salary deductions, taken before tax and National Insurance. This can result in savings of up to 25–42%, depending on your tax bracket.
In simple terms:
- You choose your bike and accessories
- Your employer pays for them via a Cycle to Work provider
- You repay the amount monthly from your gross salary
- You save money while enjoying a brand-new bike
It’s a win for your wallet, your health, and the environment.
What can you buy?
Through a Cycle to Work scheme at Minster Cycles, you can typically include:
- Road, gravel, hybrid, mountain and electric bikes
- Helmets and safety equipment
- Lights, locks, mudguards and panniers
- Clothing and footwear essential for cycling
- Maintenance accessories related to your bike
Our team will help ensure everything in your basket is fully scheme-compliant before checkout.
