After Lime scooters, Lime e-bikes are coming to Christchurch
Christchurch will join London, Berlin and Rome next week when a fleet of Lime e-bikes arrive in the city.
One hundred electric pedal-assist bikes will be available for hire, each coming with a helmet, a lock and lights. They will cost $1 to unlock and 38 cents per minute to use, the same price as Lime's e-scooters.
The bikes will have a range of 30 to 60 kilometres and people can hire them using the Lime or Uber apps.
Will you be trying the new e-bikes? Why or why not? Read more here and let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
