Ugh, these bikes have been horrible in Shanghai. I loved the idea when it first came out last summer, but they’ve gotten to be a plague. Every block is choked with these bikes, but you’re more likely to see their handlebars sticking out of a pond than to see them actually being ridden.
It’s a cool idea, and I’m still optimistic, but I can’t think of a city where this idea works well. Riding a mobike is rough when it’s hot, or when it’s cold. It’s imposible in a city that’s not flat. And in cities where biking is nice, people already have bikes.
Interested to see where this goes, but pretty cautiously optimistic
