ofo Bikes in London
Ofo is a dock-less bicycle sharing system from China that has recently began operations in London. Unlike Santander Cycles, bikes do not need to begin or end their trip at a docking station. The ofo bicycles have a built in lock that you use your smartphone and the ofo app to unlock and pay for your ride.
Pricing
Ofo bikes cost just £0.50 for each 30 minutes.
How to Start Your Trip
To rent a bicycle, find the closest bike using the ofo app on your phone. The app will use the camera on your phone to scan the QR code located on the bicycle. Your Ofo bike will unlock and your trip has begun.
How to End Your Trip
To end your trip, find a place to park your Ofo bike and simply slide tab on the rear wheel lock to lock your bicycle. Make sure to leave it in a place that isn’t blocking any doorways.
