Are you a teacher looking for a practical, eco-friendly and economical means of transport to get to school? Komut Bikes offers a solution for bike leasing specially tailored for teachers. Transform your end-of-year bonus into a high-performance electric bike without paying high upfront costs. Insurance, maintenance and breakdown cover are included in your contract for worry-free journeys.
Let's look at this with a concrete example:
An Example: Laura, a Passionate Cycling Teacher
Laura is a teacher at a secondary school located 12 kilometres from her home. She was fed up with traffic jams and high fuel costs. So she decided to take advantage of the bike leasing for teachers to get an electric bike. Thanks to this scheme, she now rides a high-end bike while saving on her journeys.
1. Laura Uses Her End-of-Year Bonus for Her Bike
As a teacher, Laura receives a gross end-of-year bonus of €1,800 per year. She decides to use it to finance her bike through a 3-year leasing contract. As this bonus is used before taxes and social contributions, Laura gets much more for her money than with a traditional purchase.
Important :
To benefit from the leasing, Laura signed a letter of intent on time, confirming that she wished to use her bonus for the bike leasing. This letter was submitted to the management of her establishment before 31 December, as required by regulations.
2. Laura Chooses Her Bike at Komut Bikes
With a total budget of 3 x €1,800 over 3 years, Laura goes to Komut Bikes. After using our leasing simulator, she knows she can opt for an electric bike worth €4,200, including a helmet, panniers, and a maintenance budget of €300 per year.
In-store, our experts recommend a model perfectly suited to her needs. She also chooses practical accessories like a lock and additional lights. These items are added to the leasing contract for total peace of mind.
3. An All-Inclusive Monthly Amount
After a few weeks, Laura's leasing contract is approved. Her bike is ready and she can pick it up at Komut Bikes.
She pays a fixed monthly amount of about €62 for 36 months, which includes insurance, maintenance, and breakdown assistance. No need to worry about repairs or maintenance: everything is taken care of.
Note :
Each year, Laura simply renews her statement of intent to continue using her year-end bonus for this purpose.
4. Private Use Included
Bike leasing is not limited to home-school journeys! Outside of class hours, Laura uses her bike to go for rides with her friends or family. Whether it's for shopping or exploring new paths, her bike is available to her 7 days a week.
What Happens After 3 Years?
At the end of her contract, Laura has two options:
- Take back her bike by paying a residual value of approximately €675 and keep it permanently.
- Rent a new bike with a brand new leasing contract, to continue enjoying a recent and high-performance model.
Why is Bike Leasing so Advantageous for Teachers?
If Laura had bought her bike herself, she would have had to pay €4,200 + maintenance + accessories. Thanks to leasing, all of this costs her only €3,000 over 3 years, which is savings of over €2,100!
And that's not all:
💸 Bike Allowance :
For each home-school journey, Laura receives an allowance of €0.21 per kilometre travelled. With her 12 km round trip, she earns €5.04 per school day. This amounts to up to €126 per month, in addition to her tax savings!
