Don't be daft. C2W doesn't give you a free bike.
You still pay for it but monthly out of your wages. It's a Hire Purchase scheme, and after 12 months 'rental' you make a final payment based on. the value of the bike at 1 year old (or hand it back and walk away). This final payment used to be tax advantageous because inland revenue would value the bike typically at a fraction of its real value, though there days the valuation is more realistic and the saving is very little.
No bugger is being given a free bike. They buy them, just like everyone else.
