SAN FRANCISCO âThe Bay Wheels regional bikeshare program will add 2,000 next-generation e-bikes and 55 additional docking stations in San Francisco, San Jose, Oakland, Berkeley and Emeryville to increase ridership and lower operating costs.The improvements will be accompanied by a drop in annual membership prices and in e-bike usage fees, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission and Lyft announced Friday.
The cost of an annual Bay Wheels membership has been dropped to $150 from $169, and use of an e-bike has been reduced to 15 cents a minute from 20 cents a minute. E-bikes are used three times as often as conventional pedal bikes by Bay Wheels riders. The next generation of e-bikes will have longer battery life, a more powerful motor for going uphill, and better theft deterrents, according to the MTC and Lyft.
