Topic > Pros and Cons of Bikeshare - 1434

Essentially, we want to make sure there are always bikes that can be controlled and places to park a bike. This solution means attracting a group of people using BikeShare who are willing to walk a couple of blocks more to get their bikes, in short it means having only those consumers who were planning to use BikeShare in the first place. BikeShare loses the ability to attract consumers there. Since BikeShare relies on the fact that most of its consumers are tourists, this spontaneous usage is an important part of the business. The reason why tourists are crucial is that the other consumption option is locals without bicycles or a local acting as a tourist. The first option, a local without a bicycle, will probably not use bike sharing because he already has a routine based on the lack of a bicycle. If they travel to places regularly they will have a preferred mode of transport (if they wanted to start using a bicycle, buying one would be much cheaper than using BikeShare). For irregular bicycle use it is enough to treat this place like a tourist. It is more than likely that the local person uses the bicycle because it is more convenient or fun than other forms of public transport
