Sale price bikes bought though Cycle To Work schemes will have a handling fee added.
This information is intended as a guide only.
Cycle To Work is a Government Initiative to encourage cycling to work. The idea is that by cycling to work, you get fitter and healthier, and at the same time reduce congestion and improve air quality.
In simplest terms, your employer pays for the bike, and you hire it from them through salary deductions. At the end of the hire period, the employer can sell you the bike. (Until the bike is paid for, you hire it from your employer, so don't get fired).
Your employer might administer the scheme themselves, or use a third party like one of the following:
GoGeta
Vivup
Green Commute Initiative
Cycle Solutions
My Benefits World
Cyclescheme
If your employer doesn't offer Cycle To Work as a benefit, you can send them this employer information from the Government that outlines how it all works.

Marin's latest long travel 29er is surely one of the best value enduro bikes on the market!
Updated spec for 2023 includes Marzocchi suspension, with a Bomber Z1 coil fork up front and a CR Coil shock. Marin's new in-house bar/grips/stem combo looks amazing, with subtle "drippy trees" graphics and a sculpted shape to the stem. XT/SLX shifting and MT420 brakes are solid and hassle-free choices.
Marin's buyers have done an incredible job of speccing the Alpine Trail XR, you really get the impression whoever picked the components on this bike knew what they were doing. The spec list is a carefully considered mix of trick bits where it matters and cheaper or own label parts where they can make a saving. For example, we're pretty sure you'd be happy with an SLX cassette and shifter, but crisper shifting from an XT mech is worth a few extra quid.
