Sounds too good to be true? Nope.
This is a unique opportunity for civil servants: from 1 January 2025, lease a Klever 45 km/h e-bike for around €4 a week. And not just any bike - a premium speed pedelec from the innovative Klever brand, known for powerful, quiet and comfortable electric bikes with a top speed of 45 km/h.
What do you get?
A Klever X 45, N 45 or Y 45 - choice of three models, all with powerful Biactron rear-wheel motor and chain or belt drive
All taken care of: maintenance, insurance and breakdown cover included
You only pay the additional tax - which is often no more than €4 per week
The employer pays the leasing company, including insurance, maintenance and roadside assistance.
Smart to work without stress
Why stand in traffic jams, sit in crowded trams or trains or search endlessly for parking spaces? For a few euros a week, you can whizz to work at 45 km/h. Or to the supermarket. Or to that appointment.
No worries about expensive purchases, no unexpected repair costs, no hassle. Just great cycling, sustainable and fresh at your destination.
Cycle fit, save money and experience convenience -
the employer pays
01
Very low monthly costs thanks to low additional tax rate
As a civil servant, you only pay additional tax on the list value of the speed pedelec (7% per year), while your employer pays the full lease cost. This allows you to use a high-end speed pedelec for a fraction of the normal price, up to a value of €7,000.
02
Health and vitality
Daily cycling contributes to better fitness, less stress and a healthier lifestyle. You start your working day fresh and have had your exercise right away.
03
Speed and travel time savings
With a speed pedelec (support up to 45 km/h), you cover long distances quickly. You bypass traffic jams, don't have parking problems and your travel time becomes more predictable.
04
Fully unburdened: maintenance, insurance and breakdown cover included
All costs for maintenance, repairs, insurance and roadside assistance are included in the lease package. You don't have to worry about anything, everything is taken care of by the leasing company.
05
Private use at no extra cost
You may also use the leased bike privately without limit, for example for shopping or recreation. This makes the scheme extra attractive, as you also enjoy the benefits outside working hours.

Example 2
Gross income €6,500 per month
Monthly addition: €40.83
Net cost per month: €40.83 × 49.5% = €20.21
What happens after the contract expires?
During the 36-month lease period, the speed pedelec remains the property of the leasing company. At the end of the lease contract, you usually have the option to take over the bike at a residual value, which is usually between 20% and 30% of the original purchase price.
Example
Purchase price speed pedelec: €6,999
Residual value (30%): €2,099
About three months before the end of your lease contract, you will receive an offer from the leasing company with the exact takeover price. If you decide not to take over the bike, you return it to the leasing company free of charge.
The exact residual value can vary and depends on factors such as the condition of the bike and the market value at the time of acquisition. Taking over your lease bike can be beneficial, especially if the bike has been well maintained and you are happy with its use. You get a trusted bike whose maintenance history you know, and you avoid the cost of a new bike.
