It does seem crazy that those paying 40% get more assistance than someone paying 30% etc. Those that need more help get less. Even though it it's obviously unfair I would advise those paying lower rates of tax not to ignore. They will still save 32% if paying 30% etc. Not to be sniffed at. All...

The problem with the old scheme, apart from it being complicated, is the retailer has to pay 10% of the total value of the sale, including the VAT element, as fee to C2W. On the Green Commute scheme the retailer pays 5% which leaves a little for negotiation. Even with no extra discount from...

All fair points Rob, but maybe we should be concentrating on the massive savings available to those who want to use an Ebike to commute? The government offering to fund more than 50% of the purchase price of any electric bike for people to cycle to work must be something to celebrate? All the...

Hi Andy, if you email me your employer's details I will get Rob from Green Comute to call them. This scheme is so much more beneficial to their employees I am sure they would listen and you can buy your bike away from Halfords. Just a suggestion! All the best, David

We've done a bit of a push in the Guardian's "My Green Pod" magazine today. It goes out to nearly 4,000,000 people. An interesting read for anyone that is unaware of the Green Commute Initiative, it could save you 42% off the price of a new electric bicycle...

Hi Peggy, if you are near Croma, Pop in and see David Wood from Electrifying Cycles, he's one of the most knowledgable ebike dealers I know. He will have a lot of bikes and brands for you to try. All the best, David

That's a shame Peggy! Have you considered a Wisper 705Torque, it's a well built, silent, powerful and sophisticated bike that falls bang into your range? If you let me know what's you are based, I would be happy to recommend a local Wisper Dealer where you will be able to test ride a bike...
