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?

    For sure. On the lease-a-bike site, they say they want to work with brick and mortar bike shops who already do repairs. I take it then they factor that into the lease for the consumer (us). The web site is still generally really light on facts though, so hard to be sure, without signing up.
