Cycle to Work at Butternut Bikes

Save money on a new bike. We’ll sort the faff.

Use your employer’s Cycle to Work scheme to save money on a new bike, electric bike, cargo bike and eligible accessories.

We’ll help you choose the right setup, prepare the quote, deal with the voucher and get everything built and ready to ride.

How it works

It sounds more complicated than it is. Most of the process boils down to four steps.

1

Choose your bike

Visit us in Crouch End, talk through what you need and take some bikes for a proper test ride.

2

We prepare the quote

We’ll quote for the bike and the eligible accessories needed to make the complete setup work.

3

You apply

Submit the quote through your employer or scheme provider and wait for the voucher to be approved.

4

We build everything

Once the voucher is ready, we build the bike, fit the accessories and arrange collection or delivery.

Yes, you can get a cargo bike

Electric bikes, cargo bikes and family bikes can all qualify for Cycle to Work. There is no universal £1,000 limit, although your employer may set its own maximum voucher value.

We regularly supply Tern, Veloe, Muli, Bike43, Estarli and other electric bikes through Cycle to Work.

Bring the family for a test ride if you can. Our hill outside the shop is rather more useful than riding around a flat car park for three minutes.

Include the useful bits too

Most schemes allow eligible cycling accessories to be included on the same voucher. For a family bike, it usually makes sense to quote for the complete setup from the start.

  • Child seats
  • Passenger equipment
  • Locks
  • Helmets
  • Lights
  • Panniers and bags
  • Racks and baskets
  • Mudguards
Gogeta Flexi-Voucher

Spend your voucher over 12 months

Gogeta’s Flexi-Voucher works a little like a tax-free gift card. You can draw down from the balance more than once during the 12-month period instead of spending the entire voucher in one go.

This can be useful if you want the bike and essential accessories now, then need more eligible equipment later in the year.

The Flexi-Voucher is specific to Gogeta. Check that your employer uses Gogeta and read its current terms before applying.

Useful things to know

Can I use Cycle to Work on a sale bike?

Usually, but not always. Providers charge bike shops different administration fees, so some discounted bikes or special offers cannot be combined with every scheme. Tell us which provider you are using and we will confirm the price before preparing the quote.

Do I need to choose the bike before applying?

Ideally, yes. Come and test ride the bikes first, then we can prepare an accurate quote for the bike and complete accessory setup.

How long does approval take?

It depends on your employer and provider. Some vouchers are approved quickly, while others take a few weeks. We cannot release the bike until the voucher has been approved and redeemed.

Can I take the bike before the voucher arrives?

Please speak to us first. It may be possible in some circumstances, but it must be agreed in advance and payment charges may apply.

What if my employer has a spending limit?

We can help you work within it. Your employer may also be able to increase the limit, particularly if you are buying an electric or cargo bike.

When do I own the bike?

Cycle to Work normally begins as a hire agreement. End-of-agreement and ownership arrangements vary between providers, so check the terms offered by your employer before applying.

Can you deliver the bike?

Yes. We can arrange local or UK delivery for many bikes. Delivery can be added to the quote where the scheme permits it.

Ready to get started?

Tell us which bike you are interested in, which scheme your employer uses and roughly what you would like to spend. We’ll help with the rest.
