The Vélopartage Bixe service has just added 10 trailers to its Montreal network, in order to allow cyclists to transport their races or large items. The organization intends to offer 50 during the summer.
According to Bixi, trailers can be harnessed as much on his bikes as on personal bikes.
We rent the trailers from the Bixi application. After use, they are returned to one of the stations in the Vélopartage network.
This novelty testifies to our constant commitment to push the limits and innovate
said by press release the director general of Bixi Montréal, Christian Vermette.
A rental of less than four hours costs $ 8 to the general public and $ 4 to subscribers.
