What do you all think of this company’s idea? You can lease a bike from them, to get started riding without the “big” expense of buying a bike up front.

I guess the big question is just, will this get more people riding then would otherwise happen? If so, seems OK, but generally, I’m resistant to this idea that literally everything needs to be done via subscriptions.

Is this available in your area and if so, is it working well or no?

    Watching the Giro d’Italia. Keep seeing this brand name on jerseys. Had to check 'em out. I’m not affiliated with them at all, tbc.

    IMO, this seems just like a greedy VC idea for how to make people pay wayyyy too much for a commodity item. But I am open to other thoughts. Maybe I’m missing something positive about this?
