Last Thursday Citi Bike eliminated a perk for members taking long ebike rides between outer boroughs.
Lyft said that it appears the glitch was only used by around 1 percent of the total number of total Citi Bike riders, both ebike and analog, so far this year. It did not have figures available for the percentage of ebike rides alone that had made use of the price cap between outer boroughs. Ebikes make up about 20 percent of the Citi Bike fleet.
Prior to last week, Citi Bike had listed the price cap as applying “rides that start or end outside Manhattan,” according to the Wayback Machine. When it changed the functioning of the app last week, it altered the language on its site to apply to “rides that enter or exit Manhattan.” The policy is designed to help ebike riders who need to commute over Manhattan-linked bridges, which accounts for a high percentage of ebike use, Lyft said.
