Not every neighbourhood in Singapore has shared bikes readily available, as operators are more selective about where they deploy them.
They are also more focused on upgrading older bikes in their fleets, instead of rolling out more bicycles. These upgrades include having child seats on their bicycles.
IMPROVING FEATURES TO BETTER SERVE USERS
HelloRide, the newest operator on the scene, is also looking into lighter bikes with better steering and seats with adjustable heights.
The company has been limited to 1,000 bicycles for now, while it proves to authorities that it can operate responsibly. It intends to upgrade to a full operating licence to put more bikes on the streets.
