We are all cycling to work more and more, which can encourage you to do so. But what exactly do you win when leasing a bicycle? In this blog you will find out exactly what bicycle leasing is and we will put the benefits for the employee in a row.

The principle of bicycle leasing is very simple. As an employee, you use a qualitative bicycle through your employer for a longer period (usually 36 months). Monthly you pay a very limited amount during the lease period, and you can purchase the bicycle at a very advantageous residual amount after the lease has ended. During the lease period you are entitled to maintenance, assistance and a total insurance which allows you to ride completely carefree.

 

The bicycle of your dreams in a wink

When you lease a bicycle, you have to say: You choose the type of bike you like most. From mountain bike, racing bike or trekking bike to an E-bike or speed pedelec. In addition, you have a choice of all the brands and models currently available on the market. Thanks to the favorable financial model (see below) it is also possible to choose a bicycle from a higher price range. That bicycle of your dreams is coming very close!

 

Great value for the wallet

Bicycle leasing is offered by most companies through a flexible wage system, where you as an employee can choose to exchange a small piece of gross pay for a brand new bike. On top of that, you can receive a tax-free bicycle allowance of up to EUR 0.24 per kilometer for your commute. The exact amount may vary from employer to employer. Wondering what the monthly lease amount would be to drive the bicycle of your dreams? Do the calculation using our handy calculator

 

Traffic jam is ancient history

Did you know that 20 percent of employees work less than 15 kilometers from the place of residence? That distance is perfect to do it with a (lease) bicycle! And that will save you a lot of time. For short distances or in urban areas, the bicycle is a lot faster than the car. Even on longer distances, E-Bike or speed pedelec can help you get on site faster. And you don't have to look for a parking spot anymore!
 

Cycling makes you happy

We may no longer need to explain that cycling is healthy. But did you know, for example, that bicycles also provide a better night's sleep? Research shows that we can sleep better if we cycle a bit every day. Just 30 minutes of exercise a day will make you fall asleep faster and even sleep for an hour longer. And who is not happy with a good night's sleep?
