It’s very easy to sit and knock it because you’ve seen one in a river, like that proves anything, so nice to see some positive news.

Flexo   10 #378 Posted March 2, 2018 Ofo raised $1.7 billion in finance at the end of 2017 and expect to raise another $1bn. Some of their UK locations are profitable already.  Time will tell whether Sheffield is civilised enough. They say that, in their experience, vandalism usually dies down after an initial flurry.

drolnhoj   15 #380 Posted March 5, 2018 Also - anyone who actually unlocks the bike ... ofo has their name and address.  The only problem with that is they have the name and address of the last person who paid to use it which is probably not the same person who wrecked it.
