What a cool idea! In Copenhagen, Denmark, you can check out a bicycle for a week from the Bicycle Library. They have different types, from racers, to folding to cargo bikes. You can even reserve them online at the Bicycle Innovation Lab. Check the link to see what’s available.
Apparently, the idea is that you can test ride different styles of bikes to determine what suites you best before buying one. There is an $80 deposit required.
Do you think something like this would work in the States?
