Bike Share for All Program, ensuring all Kansas Citians have access to bikes – especially those impacted by disparities in mobility, health, and economics.

Ratings and reviews

It's pretty incredible how many technologies it utilizes. Bluetooth, cellular, GPS, QR code what else? Electric assist motor on the bike. I haven't rode a bike in years but thought what the heck? I'm still intact so that's good. Everything worked smoothly including the bike however when I click trip history and try to view details of the trip I just get a spinning wheel indefinitely. I did receive a receipt via email so I feel confident about how much I was charged. Pretty neat service. 👍

Easy to use except I went to a place planning to get an ebike and there were only regular bikes. I had to inspect and look for the differences in the icons to realize the difference and the don't have ebikes at all in the area I went to. Please put some kind of pop up or put it in the instructions how to tell the difference. The bikes places by SM Park were cruisers, not equipped for the hilly terrain. Not fun. Plan to try again downtown with ebike as intended.

I gave it a good old college try and failed. I stood there for about thirty minutes trying to get this to work, but nope it didn't. It couldn't find the bikes, and in turn not let me unlock it at all. I scanned more than one I just hope don't get charged.
