Shared bicycles will return to calm and normality

Thread Content

The brief success of shared bicycles is mainly due to the enthusiasm of young people. The biggest advantage of shared bicycles is their convenience and speed – you can ride them whenever you want. In simple terms, you can just pick one up and use it, and then leave it wherever you are after using it. But by doing this to ease things for oneself, it imposes inconvenience on others, on society. As a result, issues such as the random parking of shared bicycles have arisen. However, the accidental success of shared bicycles was taken advantage of and swept up by capital. As a result, a wide variety of so-called sharing economy sectors have emerged. At the same time, various so-called sharing services, including bike-sharing, have, driven by reckless capital, continuously given rise to one myth after another and bubbles. The emergence of shared bicycles is indeed a good thing; it does make it easier for some people to travel. However, they are not as versatile as some people or corporations claim them to be. When people travel nowadays: for longer distances, they can take planes, trains, cars, or ships; for shorter distances, they can walk, ride a bicycle, ride an electric bike, and so on. To be honest, most people these days don’t get enough exercise; I think walking around in the vicinity is still beneficial. Also, bicycles and electric vehicles aren’t that expensive, and basically every family can afford them. Clearly, riding shared bicycles isn’t as essential as some people claim it to be. The shared bike industry is related to the aspect of \"transportation\" in people’s daily lives, and it is inherently a non-profit sector with low profits; as such, the usage fees for shared bikes cannot be set too high. However, driven by the insatiable pursuit of huge profits by capital, the shared bike industry has yet to find a way to turn a profit. As a result, it will be abandoned by capital, and gradually, the entire shared bike industry will return to calm and normality. Of course, even after returning to calm and normality, the various impacts that the previous chaos had on society will continue to exist for some time. So, returning to normal shared bicycles is like a useless item – it has no taste if eaten and is a shame to discard; it’s useful in the sense that it’s not completely useless, but it also isn’t very useful at all. The emergence of shared bicycles was originally an unimportant, trivial industry that could have existed or not; it lost its original character due to the excessive marketing and hype by certain individuals, businesses, and capital forces. It creates an illusion for the public and society, making them believe that it is indeed a trend, just as capital and businesses claim. What’s real cannot be fake, and what’s fake cannot be real. It is true that bubbles will eventually burst; they cannot be sustained, and once they expand to a certain extent, they will burst on their own. This can also be considered an economic law. Where there is a need, there is a market; where there is a market, there is capital. Making good use of capital can benefit people

There aren’t many yellow bikes to be seen on the streets; those that are there are often in disarray and not fit for riding, along with some Mobike bikes.

Mobike was sold to Meituan, and its CEO also left the company completely. OFO has essentially collapsed; deposits cannot be refunded, and its founder has been listed as a fugitive debtor. Will shared bicycles still exist in the future?

It’s actually because the transportation coverage isn’t sufficient; otherwise, where would there be room for shared bicycles to exist? It’s okay if the distance isn’t too far; but if you want to go out for a ride, it’s still better to have your own bike, as it’s much more enjoyable to ride one. But if you buy it yourself, you still have to fix it and protect it from theft; I spent hundreds of dollars on fixing it over and over again.

Yes, they are all around the bus stop.

Anyway, this thing makes things easier for some people, but creates trouble for others.

It’s just like drivers vs pedestrians, shouting at each other.
