Green Commute Initiative

admin — Wed, 21 Nov 2018 14:30:35 +0000

We’ve recently become supporters of a new cycle to work scheme. The Green Commute Initiative is a Social Enterprise with a vision to get commuters out of cars and onto bikes, with the benefits of improving an individual’s health and well-being, as well as reducing the environmental impact of pollution and congestion from cars.

For those not familiar with Cycle to Work, it’s a salary sacrifice scheme that, in allowing employees to make very worthwhile savings on the purchase price of a new bike, encourages people to use bikes to get to work. The price of the purchase is normally limited to £1000, but the Green Commute Initiative is FCA authorised such that they can offer a maximum limit of £10000. This is a very positive move as more people are using e-bikes, like the Shimano STEPS Helios, for riding to work and such bikes often far exceed the normal £1000 limit.

Our bikes, with their versatile city potential, are ideally suited for commuting, either for load carrying or for dropping the family off on the way to work. Like the Green Commute Initiative, we have a vision of safer, healthier and more people-friendly cities and we are very happy to be working with them to this end.

We are very pleased to welcome two new international dealers, Clever Cycles in Portland, Oregon, and Green Basikal in Singapore – see contact details in our ‘How to Buy’ section. Both are passionate about, and specialise in, bike based transportation solutions. Commuting, riding with the family, shopping, hauling cargo or touring, by using their bikes everyday, they are able to give friendly, informed advice about the best products and solutions for your needs.

Circe tandems as Cargo Bike

admin — Thu, 12 Nov 2015 17:02:41 +0000

A stand-out, and unique, feature of Circe tandems is the speed with which they can be converted into a Cargo bike. Both the Helios and Morpheus use the same Cargo Rack which can be combined with the Cargo Extension to form a large, flat platform rack for every day transportation needs.

Whether for the family shop,

a trip to the allotment,

or the school run, with plenty of space left for luggage and shopping,

either bike can quickly be converted from person carrier to cargo carrier.

Dealers take the strain!

Both the Morpheus and Helios make great load carrier with the addition of the Cargo and Cargo extension. There’s no better way of showing the cargo capacity than having your dealers use them for their daily chores. David and Laid Back cycles in Edinburgh can be seen here delivering a customer’s bike, by bike!

On the other side of the Channel, our Gabriel at Cycles Bentoline utilises the Morpheus for a DIY project.
