Find your dream bike.

The term of contracts for company bikes is generally 36 months.

With the Lease a Bike service bike concept, you have a free choice of type and brand. We want you to be able to ride your dream bike. Get an overview of possible company bike leasing models in the Bikefinder or contact a bike shop near you for other bike models.

Your employer determines how many company bikes can be leased per employee. When you log in to the Lease a Bike portal with your access data, you will find information on the maximum number of bikes on the start page. If your employer allows you to lease several company bikes, it doesn't matter who is using the company bike.

You can also lease several company bikes with your existing order code. You can choose a different dealership or a later date. The code is only no longer valid once the maximum number of bikes has been reached.

If more than one company bike can be used privately free of charge or at a reduced price under the employment contract, the pecuniary benefit of providing the company bikes for private use must be calculated for each company bike in accordance with the 1% rule.

Note: In the case of the company bike, the assessment basis for the taxable non-cash benefit is quartered and rounded down to the nearest hundred. This corresponds to 0.25% taxation.

Company bikes with electric motor assistance can be divided into two categories: 1. pedelecs or e-bikes and 2. S-pedelecs. The term "e-bike" is often used as a synonym for pedelec.

With a pedelec (pedal electric cycle), the rider is assisted by an electric drive (max. 250 watts) up to a speed of 25 km/h when pedaling. It is legally considered a bicycle, may be ridden on cycle paths and does not require registration or a driver's license. Helmets are not compulsory.

Use the Bikefinder to find out which company bike is right for you.

The S-pedelec (fast pedelec) as a service bike is functionally comparable to the pedelec, but the rider is supported by the electric motor (max. 500 watts) up to 45 km/h. As an S-Pedelec is classified as a moped, legal requirements apply:

• Helmet requirement (§ 21a paragraph 2 StVGO)
• Insurance license plate
• Moped test certificate
• Road traffic regulations

You must ride an S-pedelec on the road unless the cycle path is signposted for motorized two-wheelers, it is outside a built-up area or the motor is switched off.

If an S-pedelec is leased as a company bike via the Lease a Bike concept, for example, the commute (Section 8 (2) EStG) must be taxed at 0.03% of the list price per kilometer.
