Stockholm eBikes

Stockholm eBikes
Fail of the year! The municipality signed a contract with Citybike Global. The company would provide the city with 1000 eBikes back in April. Since then there has been problem after problem. Bikes not working. Bikes missing, (and a lot of them). App not working. The list of problems is too long to list here. Last I heard, the city ordered Citybike Global to pay a fine of 4.2 million kronor for the delays. Something I am hoping that these two tourists outside the Royal Castle know anything about.

Army green bikes. That makes you think.

Bike theft is also common here. It is a never ending battle to keep your bike safe.

No stolen bikes here Andy, just a company screwing things up.

Oh, that's not good. I wonder if any of those problems are happening here. I don't see as many of the ebikes as I used to.

Our city bikes are not ebikes and require pedaling.

Stefan Jansson said...

These bikes are pedal assist, so if you don't pedal you will not go anywhere Pat.
