The scheme enables employees who are taxpayers to save 40 per cent of the cost of a bicycle, and higher-rate taxpayers can save 50 per cent.


 

 

Under the scheme, the employer buys the bicycle (reclaiming the VAT on the purchase) and leases the bicycle to the employee. The employee pays an agreed amount each month out of pre-tax earnings, thereby reducing everyone's income tax and National Insurance contributions. Then, at the end of the agreement (typically, between one and three years), the employee can buy the bicycle for a nominal amount.
