Cyclescheme at Bike Clinique
We accept Cyclescheme certificates. If your employer runs Cyclescheme, you can get a bike, an e-bike, a custom build or upgrade parts from our Tooting workshop and pay for them through your salary.
The button opens your email app with a short list to fill in, sent to info@bikeclinique.com. Rather talk it through? Call us instead.

What is Cyclescheme?
Cyclescheme is a Cycle to Work scheme you use through your employer. Your employer hires the bike or equipment to you, and you pay for it from your salary through salary sacrifice, before tax and National Insurance. That is why it usually costs less than paying outright.
It is a hire, so the bike isn't automatically yours at the end. When the hire finishes you choose an ownership option with Cyclescheme. We cover that in How much can I save? below.

How to order
Get the quote right first, then apply. It saves going back and forth with your employer later.
-
Ask us for an itemised quote
Tell us the bike or parts you want. Our quote lists eligible equipment, fitting and any work the scheme doesn't fund on separate lines. We check whether fitting or servicing is eligible before you apply.
-
Check with your employer
Confirm your employer runs Cyclescheme, what your limit is and that the equipment on the quote is allowed.
-
Apply and wait for your certificate
Apply through your employer using the quote. Timing depends on your employer's approval, so we can't give you a date for this part.
-
Send us your certificate
We confirm availability and any supplier lead time, check your certificate with Cyclescheme and agree redemption and handover with you before proceeding. Ask us before assuming stock is reserved.
-
Handover at the workshop
We assemble and check everything, then hand it over at our Tooting workshop. Assembly, PDI and safety checks are included.
Good to know before you apply
- There is no discount code at checkout. Please don't pay online and then try to reclaim it through Cyclescheme.
- A certificate isn't applied automatically at checkout. We redeem it with you directly.
- If the price, stock or spec on your quote changes, contact us (and Cyclescheme if needed) before you apply or redeem. We don't assume you'll top up the difference yourself.
- We can't promise that standalone repairs qualify. This page is for bikes, upgrades and equipment, not repair bookings.

How much can I save?
It depends on you: your tax band, your salary, your employer's arrangements, fees and the ownership option you pick at the end. So we don't put a figure on it. The official Cyclescheme calculator gives you a personal estimate.
- It's an estimate, not a quote and not a guaranteed saving.
- Use your employer code in the calculator for the most accurate settings.
- The calculator uses England, Northern Ireland and Wales tax rates. If you pay Scottish income tax, read how Scottish income tax affects savings.
- At the end of the hire you choose Own it later, Own it now or Return. Fees depend on the option and your scheme, and the calculator includes a recommended ownership estimate. See What is an ownership fee?
Official Cyclescheme calculator
The calculator is run by Cyclescheme on their own website. Loading it here connects to cyclescheme.co.uk, which may use its own cookies and third-party technologies. Nothing loads until you choose to.

FAQs
Does Bike Clinique accept Cyclescheme?
Yes. Bike Clinique is an approved Cyclescheme partner retailer and accepts Cyclescheme certificates at our workshop in Tooting, London SW17.
Who can use Cyclescheme?
Employees whose employer uses Cyclescheme and approves their application. The salary sacrifice can't take your pay below the National Minimum or Living Wage, and the bike must be for you, mainly for qualifying commuting, not for a partner or children. Your HR team can confirm eligibility and any tax implications.
Is there a £1,000 limit?
There is no universal £1,000 cap. Your employer sets the limit for its scheme, so check yours before you apply.
Do I own the bike at the end?
Not automatically. Cyclescheme is a hire agreement paid through salary sacrifice. At the end of the hire you choose an ownership option from Cyclescheme: Own it later, Own it now, or Return. Any fee depends on the option and your scheme. Cyclescheme explains this in What is an ownership fee?
How much will I save?
It depends on your tax band, salary, your employer's arrangements, fees and the ownership option you choose, so we don't quote a figure. The official Cyclescheme calculator gives a personal estimate, including a recommended ownership estimate. It is an estimate, not a quote or a guaranteed saving.
Can I get an e-bike through Cyclescheme?
Yes, if it is an EAPC (electrically assisted pedal cycle). E-bikes that aren't EAPCs, scooters and other motor vehicles are excluded. We sell and build e-bikes in our Tooting workshop, including Fiido e-bikes.
Can I use Cyclescheme for a custom build or a groupset upgrade?
Yes, within the scheme rules. Custom builds are subject to Cyclescheme package approval, and frames and groupsets are eligible. For a groupset we check compatibility with your bike and quote first. See Dream bike build and Groupset upgrade.
Can I use it for parts or accessories without buying a new bike?
Yes. You don't need to buy a new bike. Components and accessories on their own can be eligible, such as tyres, brakes, helmets, lights, locks, mudguards, cycle clothing and bags.
Does Cyclescheme cover repairs or servicing?
We can't promise that standalone repairs or servicing qualify. If fitting or servicing is part of a quote, we check whether it is eligible before you apply for your certificate, and we show anything the scheme won't fund as a separate line.
Is there a discount code, or can I pay online and claim it back?
No. There is no checkout discount code, and please don't pay online and then try to reclaim the money through Cyclescheme. Ask us for an itemised quote first and apply with that.
What is included when I collect my bike?
Assembly, a pre-delivery inspection (PDI) and safety checks are included on every bike. They are part of the job, not an optional extra.
Can I return or cancel something bought with a Cyclescheme certificate?
Contact us before returning anything bought with a certificate, so we and the provider can confirm the right scheme process. Refunds and cancellations follow the provider's arrangements, so we can't promise a cash refund. Your statutory rights for faulty or misdescribed goods are not affected, and cancellation rights may differ for goods genuinely made to your specification. See our Returns policy and Terms and conditions.
