Try Before You Bike Scheme

Try Before You Bike is a simple, flexible, and affordable way to start cycling – ideal for beginners or anyone who needs a little extra support to get started. 

Your bike comes fully equipped with a lock and lights, plus optional extras such as child seats or panniers. Theft and damage cover is included, and we deliver it free to your door, ready to ride. 

Not for you? You can return your bike anytime after the first month and we’ll collect it for free. Love it? If you decide to keep your bike, you can purchase it at any time, with the price reducing over time. 

Choose from a wide range of bikes, including pedal, electric, and cargo options.

Why it’s so easy:

  • flexible & affordable – No deposit, return anytime after the first month 
  • all-inclusive – Bike, accessories, and cover included 
  • free delivery & collection – Straight to your door 
  • wide choice – Hybrid, folding, e-bikes, and cargo bikes
