What if you could rent your bicycle to a stranger?
In Copenhagen, Denmark, it is possible to rent the bike to a stranger. The Cyclister, Danish startup, wants to help cyclists to rent your bikes to total strangers. So, intends to release soon a smartphone app to make the service more effective.The company launched its service in the city of Copenhagen for more than six weeks and already has an online database with approximately 300 bikes. The cost for renting a bike is approximately $ 15 (€ 12), according to the co-founder of Cyclister David Paag."The Denmark is the perfect place to start. Is the capital of the bikes in the world and 25 percent of tourists actually rent a bicycle in the city, "says Paag, quoted by PC World Magazine and quoted by my aggregator well-being.So far, the Cyclister managed to attract a small number of people willing to rent your bikes to other inhabitants or tourists in the city, so the rental companies in town offer most bikes available in the database of the company.The company is now looking for investors to help expand and improve the service, including developing a mobile application to make the rental process more effective and "an obvious need," according to Paag.The Cyclister will have to compete with bike rental programs supported by municipalities and companies in major cities. But Paag ensures that Cyclister will compete with rental services already available, by offering a wider range of bikes, including cargo bikes, racing and mountain bikes.The aim of the company is to provide 5 million bicycles in Denmark in February 2015.
