About bike leasing. Find out more in the Lease a Bike blog.
In recent years, company bike leasing has developed from a niche offer to a widespread alternative or supplement to public transport and company cars. Tax incentives have made the model particularly attractive. Many companies now offer leasing options for bicycles and e-bikes, which means that a large number of employees can afford a high-quality bike.
For many cyclists, the best time of the year begins with the first rays of spring sunshine. Whether for work, trips into the countryside or simply for everyday mobility - your bike or e-bike should be in top shape after the winter break to get you through the new season safely and comfortably.
E-bikes are now a popular mobility option all year round - even in winter. But many users ask themselves the question: How does the cold affect the performance of the battery? The answer is that cold can actually affect the capacity of an e-bike battery, as the chemical reactions in the lithium-ion cells take place more slowly at low temperatures.
The Christmas period invites us to pause and look back on the past year - but at the same time, the first days of January usher in a phase full of new opportunities.

Employers can use this momentum not only to support their team, but also to motivate them in the long term - and company bikes can play a key role in this.

A new study by DEKRA and the market research institute Ipsos shows that many cyclists in Germany perceive road traffic as unsafe. Especially in cities, many people feel uneasy, which often turns cycling into a tense affair. According to the survey, 41% of respondents feel unsafe or even very unsafe in urban traffic - a figure that has actually risen slightly since the last survey. On country roads, 34 percent of cyclists also feel very unsafe. Many see the inadequate cycling infrastructure as the main problem. An improvement in cycle paths and more decoupling from car traffic are among the most frequent demands of those surveyed. Action is therefore needed to improve the safety situation for cyclists in Germany. But how can cyclists themselves actively contribute to safer everyday traffic? Especially with the pedelec, better known as an e-bike, which is becoming increasingly popular, there are a number of behaviors and precautions that can increase safety in traffic.
