The bike share program provides sustainable, affordable transportation for residents and visitors, with the convenience of stations located near transit stops and popular destinations. 150 “Smart Bikes” are available at 18 self-serve stations throughout the city. There will be a total of 20 stations. The City’s Community Development Department hopes to integrate WeHo Pedals with bike share programs in adjacent cities, such as Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, and Westwood.

The “Smart Bikes” come with features including eight gears, LED headlights and taillights, baskets, and U-locks. A smartphone app allows riders to reserve bikes, pay membership fees, and track data.

According to the website, riders can rent bikes at a minimum rate of $7 an hour, $25 a month, or $99 for an annual pass.
