Bike Chattanooga Releases New FIT Bike Share Bikes

  • Tuesday, May 2, 2017

The City of Chattanooga’s Bike Chattanooga Bicycle Transit System released four new FIT Bikes into the system and they are now available to the public.  

Officials said the FIT Bike has the same proven ergonomics as the ICONIC, yet lighter components such as a smaller frame, thinner hand grips, and 24” wheels allow great maneuverability.  "The sleek and modern design of the FIT provides a great experience for all types of riders, and it works at any of Bike Chattanooga’s 37 docking stations.

 Thanks to a grant from the Lyndhurst Foundation, Bike Chattanooga is among the first systems in the U.S. to add the FIT Bikes to their existing fleet of ICONIC Bikes."
 
Bike Chattanooga invites the public to find and ride the new FIT Bikes for a chance to win various bicycle themed prizes.  The first 20 people to take a FIT Bike for a spin will be entered to win one of four prize packages and one lucky rider will be awarded a Bike Chattanooga Annual Membership.  Riders are encouraged to post photos to Bike Chattanooga’s Twitter and Facebook Page using #FITbikeCHA.  "Watch for the release of more events soon, as we enter National Bike Month," officials said.
 
Riders can purchase a 24hr Access Pass ($8) or a 3-Day Access Pass ($15) at any of the 37 Station Kiosks or by using the Transit App.  Annual Memberships can be purchased for $50.
