Buying a bike tax-free through your employer

In order to encourage cycling, the Government allows employers to operate a scheme whereby employees can buy a bike via a regular salary deduction. This means the cost is spread over a period, and more importantly the employee doesn’t have to pay tax.

For more details, see the Cyclescheme website.
