“…In 1998, a third-generation of bike-sharing scheme came on line, incorporating information technology that allowed the provider to track bicycles and user information, in order to deter bike theft and optimize bike allocation [47]. Over the past two decades, over 855 cities have implemented third-generation bike-sharing programs around the world, with most supported by local governments [48].…”

Abstract:The disruptive rise of the sharing economy has inspired multiple social innovations embodying significant potential towards achieving urban sustainability in crucial areas like low-carbon mobility. Increasingly, consumers in such sharing systems participate in activities of value co-creation together with firms and peers, such as through enforcing rules that help maintain trust and reciprocity. Why do people choose to invest their time and energy in co-creating values that may benefit wider social and environmental sustainability in the sharing economy? This study addresses this question through an analysis of an emerging shared mobility community, the innovative socio-economic relationships it has spawned, and the cultural and cognitive forces that underpin these new forms of economic organization and value creation in relation to sustainability. Through a mixed method case study of a newly emerged free-floating bike sharing system in China, called Mobike, the paper explores the main enabling factors which is transforming people from passive product/service receivers to active value co-creators in the sharing economy, such as self-efficacy, cognition of duty, anticipated awards and learning processes. The paper argues that business, social and government organizations may leverage these enabling factors to achieve a more sustainable sharing business and society. Finally, based on quantitative and qualitative data analysis, the article proposes a value co-creation framework between users and firms that involves a clear social learning process on the one hand, and has strong links with social innovations towards sustainability, on the other.

“…Bike sharing has been around in various forms for decades, but it is now growing at truly extraordinary rates. From the first large-scale automated system in Lyon, France in 2005 (1500 bikes), bike sharing expanded to 1286 systems in the world as of May 2017, with a total of 3,415,750 bikes (Fishman, 2016;Meddin, 2017). Bike sharing greatly increases the availability of bikes, the flexibility of routing, and access to and from public transport.…”

“…The work of [4] showed that one of the major barriers of BSS was when users had no interest in biking. Bike operators have been aware of these reasons, such as a lack of convenience, competitive advantageous with other modes, safety concerns and anything that hinders the freedom of choice.…”

“…Green city concept is a paradigm to implement sustainable urban development which dedicated toward eco-friendly living such as lifestyle with low emissions [5]. As a matter of fact, the adoption of BSS had failed in some cities due to various issues such as lack of financial supports, low citizen participation, poor infrastructure, vandalism, theft and other matters that hinder the sustainability of the bike sharing program [4,[6][7][8].…”

“…One of the most sustainable urban transport modes is bike sharing system (BSS) which has been increasing since the first implementation in the 1960s [1]. There are approximately 500 bike sharing programs set up in about 50 countries with more than 700 cities and operating schemes involving a total of more than 800,000 bikes and 37,000 stations [2][3][4]. Many cities have a huge interest to establish similar programs for supporting the green city concept.…”

Overall Bike Effectiveness as a Sustainability Metric for Bike Sharing Systems

Bike sharing systems (BSS) have been widely accepted as an urban transport scheme in many cities around the world. The concept is recently expanded and followed by many cities to offer citizen a "green" and flexible transportation scheme in urban areas. Many works focus on the issues of bike availability while the bike performance, i.e., life cycle issues and its sustainability, for better management has been abandoned. As a consequence, mismanagement of BSS would lead to cost inefficiency and, the worst case, end with operation termination. This study proposes a design science approach by developing an Overall Bike Effectiveness (OBE) framework. By incorporating the concept of overall equipment analysis (OEE), the proposed framework is used to measure the bike utilization. Accordingly, the OBE is extended into Theoretical OBE to measure the sustainability of the early-stage of BSS. The framework has been verified and evaluated using a real dataset of BSS. The proposed method provides valuable results for benchmarking, life cycle analysis, system expansion and strategy planning toward sustainability. The paper concludes with a discussion to show the impact of the proposed approach into the real practices of BSS including an outlook toward sustainability of BSS.
