香港自行車市場已經進入的幾個球員如Ofo oBike和雙桅縱帆船'Up自行車,但整個故事的快速繁榮與蕭條的現象。去年7月,Gobee。自行車,第一個進入市場的商業城市,關店後就在一年多的運營,稱嚴重虧損。即便如此,我們仍然看到很多來自多個公共自行車的自行車公司在街角和人行道穿過城市。LocoBike的聯合創始人和首席執行官肯•Ching為數不多的球員之一,承認公共自行車服務吸引了大量的公眾的批評,與市民抱怨,除此之外,對難看的自行車留在這座城市狹窄的街道和擁擠不堪的道路。問題已經拖累了該行業的發展,“企業家說。“幾個運營商未能投入足夠的努力來管理他們的艦隊的自行車,”京告訴《香港經濟日報》。“這就是為什麼有共享自行車堵塞街道,和許多自行車被盜或破壞。“自行車損壞率高會導致公共自行車運營商的維護成本上升。LocoBike,公司擁有5000輛自行車操作在香港,有一個20人的“巡邏小組”負責清算他們的自行車塊地區,公司覆蓋了街道,根據京。巡邏隊也會當場修理損壞的自行車,為了減少處理損壞的自行車和可能延長生命周期的汽車。 In other initiatives, LocoBike delivers a HK$1 coupon to users who leave the bike at a public parking space after usage. Despite that, with other operators reluctant to ramp up efforts, the general situation of shared bikes clogging the streets has not significantly improved, resulting in the lack of social support towards the sector. “Take the supporting facilities for the sector, like designated parking space for shared bikes for example. The District Councils do not easily approve the planning and establishment of these parking spaces,” noted Ching. Despite grim forecasts for the business, and the trend where players have been pulling out one by one, Ching believes the market for bike-sharing services in Hong Kong is “still at the beginning stage”. “Development of bike-sharing markets in Singapore, the United States, and even mainland China, is in a similar path,” he said. “At the beginning, many operators enter the market, with some simply wanting to raise money. And then, after the government comes in, implementing regulations, those players would quit, and those remaining in the market are operators that truly want to work on this.” This article appeared in the Hong Kong Economic Journal on July 8 Translation by Ben Ng
