Testimonial

The Workride initiative was recently introduced to our company and it was recommended to me to deal with Bobby or Matt at Cycleways. They know the process like the back of their hand and couldn’t have made it any easier. I would 100% recommend Cycleways as the place to start your new ebike journey.

How It Works

Example

Workride operates on a "salary sacrifice" model, where employees opt to reduce their pre-tax salary to lease a bike. In addition to the tax savings, a small proportion of other contributions like student loans or KiwiSaver may also be redirected towards the ride, depending on its value. At the end of the lease term, employees have the option to take ownership of the ride.

For example, an employee with a $80,000 salary chooses a bike valued at $6380, but it’s on sale in-store at $5200. Through Workride, they sacrifice $100 pre-tax and their weekly take-home pay impact is only reduced by $49, totalling an annual net contribution of only $2572 towards the ride. Thus, making their new salary $74,800. This arrangement benefits both the employee and employer, offering tax savings and financial flexibility.
