Leasing
1. choosing a bike
First, choose a bike from our online shop and order using the company bike finance payment option. Ask your employer which leasing company they work with. Write this information in the comments section We will send you a quote once you have placed your order.
2. finalise the lease
Once you have chosen a bike, your employer will enter into a lease agreement for the bike with the leasing company. The duration is usually 36 months. During this time, the bicycle remains the property of the lessor.
3. salary conversion (take advantage of tax benefits)
The leasing instalment is deducted directly from the gross salary, which is known as salary conversion. As the instalment is deducted from your gross salary, your taxable income is also reduced. This means that you benefit from tax advantages and pay less social security contributions and income tax.
4. Use of the bicycle
You can use the leased bike for commuting as well as for private use. Many employers also offer leasing if you don't explicitly need the bike for commuting, so you can use it in your free time or for sporting purposes.
5. Insurance and service
Many leasing contracts include insurance (e.g. against theft and damage) and services such as servicing. This ensures you have peace of mind during your lease.
6. End of lease - options
At the end of the lease you have several options:
Buy the bike: You can buy the bike for a residual value. This is usually around 10-18% of the original purchase price.
Return the bike: You can simply return the bike to the lessor and lease a new one.
Further leasing: You can lease another bike of your choice and start the process again.
