stevenl Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Those bikes are all around the island without lock, so yes, seems it has failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob12345 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 We have them here in the moobaan and people do use them, although they started out with 5 bikes and as of last week there is only 1 left which does not have a saddle. No idea what they charge as I have never used them, but in general i would say Thailand is not suitable for bicycles (no biking lanes, no safety, too hot).
