Bicycle-sharing systems

The following table lists bicycle-sharing systems around the world. Most systems listed allow users to pick up and drop off bicycles at any of the automated stations within the network (denoted as 3 Gen.). Other ''generations'' are described at Bicycle-sharing system, section Categorization.

Europe

The advertising company JCDecaux launched its ''"Cyclocity"'' programs initially in Vienna, Austria in 2003 and in Lyon, France in 2005. The company also started programs in other cities in Europe such as Paris, Córdoba, and Kazan, as well as cities outside of Europe, such as Brisbane, Australia. Smart cards are used to pay for use of the bikes.

Competitor Clear Channel, then operating as Adshel, opened the first example of this in Rennes in 1997, and has several other sites including Oslo, Stockholm, Sandnes and Trondheim, most generally similar to that offered by their competitor.

A different financial model called bicing is used in Barcelona, which is paid for by car owners parking on public streets and not by advertising – which is contracted to JCDecaux in some places.

France

French cities not included in the list above offering a bicycle-sharing system include Lorient, Annemasse, and Aix-en-Provence.

Netherlands

In 1965, the group Provo painted fifty bicycles white and scattered them unlocked in downtown Amsterdam for everyone to use freely. The bicycles were both stolen as well as impounded by the authorities, as a city ordinance forbade leaving unlocked bikes in public places.

In September 1997, a pilot project for a public share system, based on the UK's ''Grippa'' racks was established in Rotterdam for use by commuters but it was terminated the following year due to poor functionality of the electronic bike racks.

Norway

The first Norwegian bicycle-sharing system was introduced in Sandnes in 1996. It consisted of 225 green DBS bikes that were free to use in the fashion of a first generation bicycle-sharing system. The Sandnes system was converted to a third generation automated system in 2002. In 1998, Trondheim introduced a second generation system with 200 bicycles modeled after that of Copenhagen's. The Trondheim system was converted into a third-generation system in 2005.

The following cities are known to have city bike arrangements. Some are prepaid automatic (for example Oslo), and some are manual (Tønsberg). In 2001, Drammen introduced a third-generation system together with Clear Channel. Bergen, the second-largest city in Norway, has occasionally had city bikes, and as of 2018 and 2019 opened a new and improved system based on the system in Oslo together with and Urban Infrastructure Partner.

*Bergen
*Drammen
*Oslo - Oslo Bysykkel (249 rental hubs as of April 2021)
*Sandnes (no longer operating, now served by kolumbus bysykkel))
*Rogaland - Kolumbus Bysykkel (Covers several municipalities in Rogaland for example Stavanger and Sandnes). it is managed by the transit agency of Rogaland and is integrated in the transit ticketing app and you get 15 minutes for free if you have a ticket.
*Trondheim
*Tønsberg

Portugal

Portugal has several bike-share systems implemented in various cities and towns. The largest is Lisbon's GIRA public bike share system, a hybrid system currently operating with 700 pedelec and conventional bicycles served by 91 stations. As of 2021, a large expansion of Lisbon's bike share system is underway, expected to duplicate both fleet and coverage. Other systems with reasonable urban coverage for the size of their operating areas are those of Vilamoura with 260 bicycles and 43 stations, Torres Vedras with 260 bicycles and 20 stations, and Vila do Conde with 60 bicycles and 12 stations. The town of Cascais with Portugal's second largest bike-sharing system has a relatively adequate geographical coverage of the municipality, but operating hours are limited (from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.), some stations have few or no bicycles available for long periods of time, and operations were suspended during 15 months, from the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in mid-March 2020 until June 2021, when the system was gradually reactivated. Other systems are being implemented in various towns nationwide, mostly in towns along the central and northern coastal areas and in the Azores.

Romania

Timișoara is the first Romanian city to introduce a public rent-a-bike system. The scheme is called VeloTM and has 25 stations and 300 bikes. The rent-a-bike system works with the RATT card. Renting a bike is free; however, there is a fee for the card.

Russian Federation

Automated public bicycle-sharing systems in Russia operate in various Russian cities, including but not limited to Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Kazan and Almetyevsk (Tatarstan). The system in Moscow is steadily expanding each year while the systems in Saint Petersburg and Kazan were struggling to survive, and closed later. The system in Almetyevsk is dockless with about 300 pre-marked parking lots across the town where the bicycles must be left after use. A couple of smaller-scale dockless systems are deployed in Adlersky City District in Sochi. Later, Russia's large kick-sharing companies, Whoosh and Urent, joined the competition by offering their dockless e-bikes.

Mobee network

The Russian-based Mobee bike-sharing company operates a few dockless bicycle-sharing networks. As of 2019, it has opened in three cities: Sochi, Volgograd and Saratov.

Slovakia

In 2001, the not-for-profit organization BiCyBa released white bicycles into public use in Bratislava, Slovakia. During the next three months, all the bikes were stolen or destroyed and the project was cancelled.

In 2013, a new community-run bike-sharing program in Bratislava called White Bikes commenced service with about 100 bikes (donated by the local Rotary Club) and over 60 stations as of December 2017. It is built on the Open Source Bike Share System based on SMS and a web app. It was started in 2013 by BikeKitchen initiative and cycling advocacy NGO ''Cyklokoalicia''. There is no fee; membership is granted after initial introduction and training. Bikes are available year-round.

The official Bratislava city bike-sharing system Slovnaft Bajk was launched on 7 September 2018 in cooperation with Slovnaft. It initially offered under 100 bicycles at around 80 stations. The number of bicycles increased to around 190 later, but users complained about the UX, broken bicycles, and the rental process. An estimated 23% of bicycles were non-functional or inaccessible for rental. Another free-floating bike sharing system, Rekola, from Czechia was launched in September 2020.

The first commercial bike-sharing system in Slovakia was launched in 2016 in the city of Prievidza. (Green bicycle) has 19 stations and was expected to add 10 more in 2018. Bikes are not available during the winter season.

Public transportation company Arriva launched a bike-sharing system in Nitra in 2017. It is a complementary service for bus riders. It features seven docking stations. The price is €25 per year, €3 per day or €0.50 per hour. Bikes are not available during the winter season.

Another commercial floating bike-sharing system was launched by a telecom provider, Antik Telecom, in Košice in . They introduced their system to the districts of Rača and Vajnory in Bratislava in .

Spain

The Ayuntamiento de Burgos runs a bike-sharing program in BiciBur,'Tu Bici, tu Ciudad' ''(Your Bike, your City)''
at BiciBur.es, Accessed 14 June 2017 with 23 locations, most with positions for ten bikes. Membership is €15 per year.

Sweden

The Stockholm City Bikes system has more than 80 stands and 1,000 bikes. The system functions from April to October.

The bike sharing system in Gothenburg, known as Styr & ställ, was launched in August 2010. The system has 60 stations and 1,000 bikes.

Switzerland

Switzerland possesses several bicycle-sharing systems including PubliBike, Smide, and oBike, which was launched in Zurich on 5 July 2017.

The PubliBike network consists of more than 500 stations and 5000 Bikes throughout the country. It includes nine stations on the Lausanne campus. oBike is said to have deployed 350 bikes in the city of Zurich at a rate of CHF 1.50 for 30 minutes, with a required CHF 129 deposit. The city of Zürich also has a free bike-rental program, "Züri rollt", with several pick-up and drop-off locations.

United Kingdom

England

In 1993, a ''Green Bike Scheme'' bike sharing programme was initiated in Cambridge, United Kingdom, using a fleet of some 300 bicycles. The overwhelming majority of bicycles in the fleet were stolen or missing within a year of the programme's introduction, and the Green Bike Scheme was abandoned.

In an attempt to overcome losses from theft, bike sharing programmes adopted a so-called ' smart technology'. One of the first 'smart bike' programmes was the ''Grippa™'' bike storage rack system used in Portsmouth's ''Bikeabout'' scheme.Black, Colin, Faber, Oscar, and Potter, Stephen, ''Portsmouth Bikeabout: A Smart-Card Bike Club Scheme'', The Open University (1998) The ''Bikeabout'' scheme was launched in October 1995 by the University of Portsmouth, UK, as part of its ''Green Transport Plan'' in an effort to cut car travel by staff and students between campus sites. The ''Bikeabout'' scheme was a "smart card" fully automated system.Hoogma, Remco, et al, ''Experimenting For Sustainable Transport: The approach of Strategic Niche Management'', London: Spon Press, (2002), pp. 4–11, 176 For a small fee, users were issued 'smart cards' with magnetic stripes to be swiped through an electronic card reader at a covered 'bike store' kiosk, unlocking the bike from its storage rack. CCTV camera surveillance was installed at all bike stations in an effort to limit vandalism. Upon arriving at the destination station, the smart card was used to open a cycle rack and record the bike's safe return. A charge was automatically registered on the user's card if the bike was returned with damage or if the time exceeded the three-hour maximum. Implemented with an original budget of approximately £200,000, the Portsmouth ''Bikeabout'' scheme was never very successful in terms of rider usage, in part due to the limited number of bike kiosks and hours of operation. Seasonal weather restrictions and concerns over unjustified charges for bike damage also imposed barriers to usage. The ''Bikeabout'' program was discontinued by the university in 1998 in favour of expanded minibus service; the total costs of the ''Bikeabout'' programme were never disclosed. Following the discontinuation of the University of Portsmouth's ''Bikeabout'' programme in 1998 (it had been launched in 1996), the introduction of new bicycle share systems proceeded more slowly in the United Kingdom than in the rest of Europe.

In 2007, (another source gives early 2008) London mayor Ken Livingstone promised that an extensive bicycle-sharing system modelled on the Paris Vélib' system would be introduced in London during his final term in office. The scheme was not completed until Boris Johnson was in office, and consequently became known informally as "Boris Bikes". With initial sponsorship from Barclays and later Santander, Transport for London launched the scheme in 2010. Hire under 30 minutes is free from special bicycle stands across the city, after a daily, monthly, or annual charge has been paid.

Outside London, the largest bicycle-sharing scheme is the hire-a-bike operation in Blackpool, operated by Hourbike, with 60 stations and 500 bikes. This scheme uses both RFID membership cards and instant point-of-sale memberships for both residential users and visitors. Hourbike also has schemes in Lincoln, Reading, Liverpool, Nottingham, and Southport in England as well as Dumfries, Scotland.

In 2017, ofo, a Beijing-based bike share company, announced plans to provide shared bike services to several British cities. In 2018, the company withdrew service to several British towns and reduced service area coverage to others as part of a global restructuring plan.

In May 2017, Bristol became the first European city to have a hire-a-bike system operated by YoBike.

Some bike-sharing schemes use mobile phone apps to reserve or sign out bikes. In the UK, OYBike ran small-scale operations at two universities, three business parks, three London boroughs, and a private hotel chain in London until 2011. Like Munich's ''Call-a-Bike'', OYBike used mobile phone technology to log use and charge for hires and could set up hire points in as little as 10 minutes.

Brompton Bike Hire has 40 docks across 25 major locations in the UK, starting at £2.50 for 24 hours. It uses the same hardware as BIXI Montréal, and members can rent a folding Brompton bike. The locations of the docks include London, Birmingham, Manchester, Bristol, Reading, Southampton, and Oxford.

In 2018 the Singaporean-based company oBike launched in London, with 400 dockless bikes and was anticipated to spread to other cities in the UK. In the UK, oBike's bike hire is 50p for 30 minutes, with a required £49 deposit.

In June 2019, bicycle light company Beryl launched a dockless cycle share scheme in Bournemouth and Poole, which was extended to Christchurch the following year. Beryl also operates schemes in Hereford, Norwich, Watford and the Isle of Wight.

In June 2021, Transport for Greater Manchester announced Beryl as the delivery partner to design, install and operate a 24/7, docked public cycle hire scheme made up of an initial 1,500 bikes and e-bikes at over 200 docking stations across Manchester, Trafford and Salford, in Greater Manchester. The scheme was scheduled to launch in November 2021.

Northern Ireland

Belfast launched a public bike hire scheme on 27 April 2015. The scheme was sponsored by Coca-Cola HBC Northern Ireland and is called Coca-Cola Zero Belfast Bikes. The Department for Regional Development (DRD) provided initial capital funding for the scheme as part of their Active Travel Demonstration Projects budget. NSL oversees the daily operation of the scheme, while Nextbike is responsible for the bikes. There are 33 docking stations with options for expansion depending on securing additional resources and council approval.

Scotland

Recent expansions to cities in Scotland included Glasgow and Stirling. Stirling's scheme was named "Pedalforth" following a competition in the community and comprises 100 bikes and 11 stations. Glasgow was provided with 400 bikes across 31 stations in 2014. In addition to this, in 2018, Edinburgh launched its own cycle hire scheme in partnership with Just Eat, titled Just Eat Cycles.

Wales

Cardiff

Nextbike started a public bike hire scheme operating in Cardiff on 26 March 2018, with five docking stations and 50 bicycles.Cardiff Council, 30 March 2018: World's Most Extensive Bikeshare Operator Nextbikes Arrive in Cardiff
at businessnewswales.com, accessed 4 April 2018 The original plan was to have the public bike hire scheme operating in Cardiff by Autumn 2017 and to have 500 cycles at over 50 docking stations in the city. It came six years after OYBike ended a smaller scheme (with 10 stations), following the council's withdrawal of funding in 2011."Cardiff's new bike hire scheme expected to be up and running by this autumn", at walesonline.co.uk
Accessed 12 September 2017 On 7 December 2023 it was announced that Nextbike would be discontinuing the scheme on the 31st due to vandisation and theft.

Swansea

Santander began a bike sharing scheme in Swansea in the summer of 2018. Initially, there were five docking station, with a sixth later being added in Mumbles. The scheme has proven popular and there are prospects of expanding the service in the city.

North America

Canada

Montréal, QC

The first widely deployed bicycle-sharing system in Montréal was BIXI Montréal, launched in 2009. It expanded to 6200 bicycles at 540 stations, making it the largest bicycle-sharing system, alongside the one in Toronto. Although initial program costs were $15 million for planning and implementation of the Bixi project, subsequent expenses incurred in expanding the program have driven costs upwards of $23 million. The system was developed by PBSC Urban Solutions along with a consortium of vendors. The BIXI technology was later used in bike sharing systems in North America, Europe and Australia. The Montreal system was ranked by ''Time'' magazine as the 19th best invention of 2008. As of 2024, Bixi has more than 10,000 bikes, 2 600 of which are e-bikes and 900 stations.

Quebec City, QC

àVélo launched in 2021 with 100 pedal assist bikes and 10 stations. As of 2023, àVélo has 780 pedal assist bikes and 74 stations.

Hamilton, ON

Sobi Hamilton launched in March 2015 with 750 bicycles at over 100 stations.

Ottawa, ON

The Bixi system was implemented in June 2009 in Ottawa/Gatineau as Capital Bixi. It launched in 2009 as a pilot program with 100 bicycles and 10 stations. In 2012, it was expanded to 250 bicycles and 25 stations. Its owner, the NCC, sold it to US-based CycleHop in April 2014 when its operator, Montreal-based Public Bike System Company, filed for bankruptcy protection in January 2014. CycleHop renamed the service to VeloGo and replaced the fleet with 'smart' bicycles, where GPS tracking is built into each bicycle, instead of relying on base stations, as with Bixi system. VeloGo began its service in the summer of 2015.

Toronto, ON

From 2001 to 2006, BikeShare, operated by the Community Bicycle Network (CBN) in Toronto, was for a time the most popular community bicycle-sharing program in North America. BikeShare was intended to overcome some of the theft issues by requiring yearly memberships to sign out any of the 150 refurbished yellow bikes locked up at 16 hubs throughout central Toronto. At its height, over 400 members could sign out a bike from any hub for up to three days. The hubs were located at stores, cafes, and community centres where the staff would volunteer their time to sign bikes out and in. Despite steadily increasing administrative, implementation, and maintenance costs, CBN could only charge users around 20 percent of actual costs, as users were unlikely to spend more than $50 per year for a membership. Without sufficient funds in the form of private and government grants, CBN discontinued BikeShare in 2006.

Bixi Toronto launched in 2011 with 800 bicycles at 80 stations. In 2013, when Public Bike System Company acknowledged that it could not repay its $3.9 million loan to the city, the system was taken over by the Toronto Parking Authority and renamed Bike Share Toronto. In 2016, the city of Toronto signed a contract with PBSC to expand their system. Its network hosts 6,850 bicycles spread among 625 stations.

Vancouver, BC

In July 2016, Vancouver installed a bike sharing system, Mobi, operated by CycleHop Corp. Mobi launched with 1500 bicycles at 150 stations.

Victoria, BC

In September 2017 a dockless bike share became available in the city of Victoria, starting with 150 bicycles. The dockless bike share was operated by U-Bicycle, but disappeared from the city's streets after a couple of years.

Edmonton, AB

From 2005 to 2008, a largely unregulated bike sharing program was operated by the Peoples' Pedal organisation in Edmonton, Alberta. The program suffered from high theft and vandalism rates, with 95% of the bikes that had been placed into service stolen or missing by 2008.

Costa Rica

Cartago, east of San José, Costa Rica, started a bikeshare program in 2017.

Mexico

Mexico City

Ecobici is one of the world's largest bicycle-sharing programs, with 452 stations covering a area.

In February 2010, the government of Mexico City inaugurated a bicycle-sharing network called Ecobici. With distinctive red and white liveried bicycles, the network as of February 2015 consists of 444 stations with 6,500 bicycles. With more than 240,000 registered users, it has been argued that Ecobici is the largest bicycle-sharing program in North America. The system is run by the private company Clear Channel México, but funded by the government with an initial investment of 75 million pesos. Users of the system are required to purchase an RFID card at a cost of 400 pesos which provides them with access to the bicycles for one year. Use of a bicycle is free for the first 45 minutes; extra charges are applied for use beyond the time limit.

Guadalajara

In December 2014, the government of the State of Jalisco implemented a bicycle-sharing system called MiBici with 86 stations and 860 bicycles. As of August 2021, it has 300 stations with 3,200 bicycles. This system uses the technology and the hardware of PBSC.

Toluca

In November 2015, the Municipality of Toluca inaugurated a bicycle-sharing system called Huitoluzi with 26 stations and 300 bicycles, using PBSC as a provider. It is currently inactive.

Pachuca

In February 2016, the Municipality of Pachuca inaugurated a bicycle-sharing system called Bici Capital with six stations and 140 bicycles.

Puebla

Beginning in January 2017, Puebla was scheduled to have a system called Bici Puebla with 139 stations and 2,100 bicycles.

United States

In the United States, public bicycle share programs have largely centered around major cities and universities. Some corporate campuses have private systems. According to a report by the National Association of City Transportation Officials, a total of 35 million bike-share trips took place within the United States in 2017 across 100 bike-share systems across the country, operated by eight companies. Seattle led the way with a dockless bike sharing system in the U.S. in the summer of 2017, and other cities soon joined the ranks. Nine months later, about 44% of rides were dockless. The bikes became controversial in various cities; Dallas reportedly had 20,000 bikes on the streets, they were essentially banned in New York City and San Francisco, with Austin, Texas issuing emergency rules for their implementation.

Bikes Belong (Dem/Rep Conventions), 2008

In 2007, Bikes Belong (now known as PeopleForBikes), an advocacy group financed by major bicycle manufacturers, worked with city officials, local advocates, and the healthcare firm Humana to bring bike sharing to the Republican and Democratic 2008 conventions. Called "Freewheelin!" the program offered 1,000 bicycles at 12 stations throughout the downtowns of the host cities, Denver and Minneapolis/St. Paul, over the five days of each convention. Bikes Belong's stated goal was to provide a proof-of-concept that large-scale bicycle sharing that had gained popularity in European cities could work in U.S. cities and provide a valuable addition to the transportation mix. The program was popular among conventioneers and helped the city of Denver to create a narrative around the "green" attributes of the convention. Both Denver and Minneapolis successfully pursued permanent bike sharing systems, with Denver B-cycle launching on 22 April 2010 as the first of its scale in the U.S., followed by Minneapolis' NiceRide system launching on 10 June 2010.

Aspen/Basalt, CO

The system was launched in 2013 with 16 stations and 200 bikes with provider PBSC.

Albany, NY

In 2017, CDPHP Cycle! launched in Albany and three other Capital region cities. The bikes can be locked to official docks or any other rack for a slightly higher fee.Explore the Capital Region on Two Wheels!
''cdphpcycle.com'', accessed 18 March 2020 The system is operated by CDTA.

Alpharetta, GA

Alpharetta offered a bike share program operated by Zagster. Trips under three hours were free, and annual memberships were $20. Bikes could be rented from four stations throughout Alpharetta. Bikes could be taken anywhere, including Alpharetta's Big Creek Greenway– a 12-foot wide concrete path that stretches eight scenic miles terminating in Big Creek park. The service was suspended late May 2020 due to a large-scale Zagster shutdown, and all bicycles and stations were removed.

Atlanta, GA

In June 2016, Relay Bike Share launched as the bike share system for the City of Atlanta. The program, operated by Cyclehop and Social Bicycles, launched with 100 bicycles at 10 stations throughout the downtown area. The program aimed to offer 500 bicycles across the city by the end of 2016.

Austin, TX

In December 2013, Austin B-cycle was launched as the bike share system for the City of Austin with 11 stations. Austin B-cycle set a national bike share record for the most checkouts per bicycle in a single day, 10.1 checkouts per bike, on 14 March 2015 during the SXSW festival. In July 2020, Capital Metro and the city of Austin finalized a partnership to improve Austin's mobility network utilizing the city-owned BCycle bike share system. This partnership, now called Metrobike, aims to create long-term bike share service improvements such as expanding the BCycle fleet and stations, optimizing the system's first and last-mile transit solution, improving services and reaching communities outside of the downtown core, and fully electrifying BCycle's fleet. As of March 2022, the MetroBike system operated more than 75 bike share stations with 800 bikes in the central Austin area.

Baltimore, MD

In May 2014, over 40 bicycles were stolen from Baltimore Recreation and Parks department's bike-share program. The bikes were stolen during the city's Ride Around Reservoir program in Druid Hill Park. The bikes were set up to be lent out when a group of youths took them. The cost of replacing the stolen bikes is devastating to the program, which operates completely on donations.

Birmingham, AL

Birmingham launched Zyp Bikeshare in October 2015. Annual memberships are $75, with monthly passes for $20, 3-day passes for $12, and daily passes for $6. Zyp also offers discounted annual memberships to individuals who qualify. Zyp operates 400 bikes at 40 kiosks. Bikes can be ridden anywhere in the downtown Birmingham area. Once a bike is unlocked, riders have 45 minutes to ride before incurring additional fees if they have not docked at another station. As well as traditional bikes, Zyp was the first bike share in North America to have electric pedal-assist bikes to help riders cover distances or mount hills faster.

Boston, MA

In 2007, Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino and Director of Bicycle Programs, Nicole Freedman, decided to bring bike sharing to the Boston area. The Metropolitan Area Planning Council, the regional planning agency for the metro-Boston region of 101 cities and towns, joined the effort. Brookline, Cambridge, and Somerville also participated.

On 28 July 2011, Boston launched its 60-station, 600-bike Hubway system, sponsored by the shoe manufacturer New Balance and funded in part by a $3 million grant from the Federal Transit Administration. The contract to operate was awarded to Alta Bicycle Share and the equipment provider was PBSC Urban Solutions. Bicycle sharing was greeted with a mix of excitement and skepticism. In its first two and a half months, Hubway recorded 100,000 station-to-station rides. After recording 140,000 trips in four months, Boston's European-style bicycle-sharing system expanded outside city limits, planting stations across Cambridge, Somerville, and Brookline.

In the spring of 2018 Motivate the operator of the system changed sponsors from Hubway to the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association and officially changed the name of the bike share program to Bluebikes Boston. As of December 2018, the system had deployed 262 stations with a fleet of over 2,500 bikes.

Boulder, CO

In May 2011, Boulder, Colorado launched a bicycle-sharing system, Boulder B-Cycle, with 100 bicycles and 15 stations. Like many in northern latitude cities, this system closes down during winter months to help preserve the life of the equipment.

Broward County, FL

Broward B-Cycle launched in December 2011 as the country's first county-wide bike share program, with 200 bikes and 20 stations located in several cities within Broward County, including Fort Lauderdale. This system was funded through a public-private partnership with the Florida Department of Transportation providing a $311,000 grant through Broward County, and B-Cycle's sponsors providing the remainder of the initial capital and operating costs.

Buffalo, NY

Reddy Bikeshare launched in 2016 with 200 bicycles at 35 stations around the city.

China

Initially, a number of traditional (third-generation) docked public bike systems operated by local municipal governments opened across China, with the largest ones being in Wuhan and Hangzhou. The first was introduced in Beijing in 2007. However, third-generation bike sharing has not been considered successful in the majority of cities in China. Bike sharing in Beijing virtually stopped and also encountered difficulties in Shanghai and Wuhan.

In 2014, students from Peking University created a company called ofo and initialize the fourth generation bike sharing system in their campus. In 2017, a number of private competing Mobile app, app-based dockless bike-sharing programs have started to appear in numerous cities across China. The two largest dockless operators are Mobike and Ofo (bike sharing), Ofo, others include Bluegogo and Xiaoming. Many Chinese cities saw massive growth in the number and use these dockless bike share programs, clogging sidewalks around major commercial hubs and subway stations with parked bikes. Given the speed of growth with these services, local governments did not have any regulations or planning to accommodate these systems. However the Chinese government encourages the development of dockless bikes to reduce urban pollution. Early studies in Beijing and Shanghai have linked the massive increase of dockless bike shares to the decrease in the number of private automobile trips that are less than five kilometres. In Guangzhou, the arrival of dockless bike shares had a positive impact in the growth of cycling mode share.

Beijing

A municipal scheme in Beijing was launched in 2012 with the stationing of 2,000 bikes in the Chaoyang district. The scheme was scheduled to consist of 20,000 rental bikes and 500 kiosks, according to the Beijing Municipal Commission of Development and Reform. The main operating area was to be in business districts and near Beijing Subway, subway stations and major public venues. By 2015, authorities intended to have 50,000 bikes available, similar to the Hangzhou scheme that was used as a model."A push for bicycles", ''South China Morning Post'', 11 January 2011 This development followed the failure of a scheme launched in 2005–2006 (ahead of Velib) and in the light of a 2011 announcement by the Beijing Municipal Commission of Transport that it expected to raise the bike share of urban commuter journeys from 20 to 23 percent by 2015.

In March 2017, Beijing saw over 200,000 dockless shared bikes from various companies enter service. The bikes are accessible via an app, and typically cost around 1 RMB per hour plus a refundable damage deposit of 299 RMB. Aside from the dockless bicycles, an existing municipal-run, dock-based bike network has 86,000 bikes. The Beijing municipal government pledged to improve management and parking availability in response to the rapidly growing fleets of dockless bikes. Beijing cycling rates increased from 5.5% to 11.6% after the arrival of the dockless bike systems.

Shanghai

In preparation for the 2010 World Expo in Shanghai, China, Shanghai launched a limited bike share programme accessible through RFID cards. Users could purchase 100-ride credits for about $30. Short rides are rewarded credits and longer rides subtract credits once the bikes have been re-docked. Shanghai planned to expand to 3,500 Bicycle Hot Spots throughout the entire city by 2010. Two years after the World Expo, Shanghai's bicycle-sharing programme was mostly limited to the Minhang District.

The Shanghai Bike Authority estimated that there are 280,000 shared bikes in Shanghai by March 2017, with a projected increase of 220,000 bikes by June.

Ridership doubled when $5 helmets were offered for sale from vending machines. The MBS used 500 cycles at about 50 stations around Melbourne's central business district before it was shut down in November 2019.
