Rekola is bicycle sharing system in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. It started in Prague in 2013 as a small project of Vít Ježek.[1] As of 2020, it is operating in six Czech cities, Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia and in the Finnish city of Vaasa. The company is operating more than 2000 bikes, most of them are located in Prague. Daily ridership in 2018 was 4,700 people.[2][non-primary source needed] The pink bikes of Rekola do not have any docks, which makes the system five times cheaper than traditional dock system.[3] The bikes can be unlocked through an official app.[4] User unlocks the bikes manually through the code which is given from the app.
Besides classical bikes, Rekola is also providing shared ebikes, kick scooters, skateboards and paddleboards.
