I dare you to find a new bike for £30. A half decent bike will quickly set you back £300 to £400.

Personally, I wouldn't use them as paying £45 to be a member and then £1 per hour is too expensive. A 23 kg bike sounds excessive as well. I prefer having my own urban assault vehicle kitted out as I like it.

I suppose they can be nice for occasional use, but not for the more serious/daily cyclist.
