Salary sacrifice scheme – best sub £3k low depreciating bike!?

I am able to purchase a bike using a salary sacrifice scheme therefore the real cost to me for a RRP £3k bike would be £1740 after tax deductions, etc split over 12 months.

I had a look at electric Brompton and they seem to drop £800 the moment they roll out of the shop. Is there anything that holds better value / in demand that would release me a better return should my old knee injury flare up and I need to sell it…

Generally has to be available from a main stream retailer.

Bromptons hold their value better than most bikes. Can't think of many worse 'assets' than bicycles in terms of depreciation. Trust me, I have lots of experience over the last 25 years....

Maybe borrow a bike for a few weeks and try the knee out?
