Bay Wheels is the Bay Area’s premier bikeshare system, and one of the largest in the nation. Get access to thousands of bikes and see public transit schedules around you in San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley, Emeryville, and San Jose. Best of all, it’s available 24/7.
Bay Wheels consists of a fleet of specially-designed, sturdy, and durable electric bikes that can be accessed throughout the Bay Area, as well as classic bikes that are locked into a network of docking stations in Bay Area cities. Our bikes can be unlocked from one station and returned to any other station in the system, making them ideal for one-way trips. Bikeshare is a greener, healthier way to get around — whether you’re commuting, running errands, meeting friends, or exploring in a new city.
The Bay wheels App gives you access to thousands of bikes in your area — unlock and pay directly from the app and get going. You can also get walking directions and see public transit schedules to help you easily get to bike stations.
The Bay Wheels App also shows upcoming public transit departures, including BART trains, Caltrain rail lines, the Tamien-San Jose shuttle, MUNI buses, MUNI Metro light rail, MUNI cable cars, MUNI trolleys, AC Transit Local & Transbay buses, VTA light rail, VTA Local buses, VTA Rapid buses, VTA Express buses, VTA ACE shuttles, Golden Gate Ferries, Sonoma County Buses, Sonoma County connectors & shuttles, SF Bay Ferries, the Angel Isl. Tiburon Ferry, the SMART train, Marin Transit buses, SamTrans Local & Express buses, Stanford Marguerite buses and the SFO Airtrain.

Happy riding!
The app works great. The overall service is about 4 stars. I love riding as bike around town without needing to keep track of my own bike. Sometimes the bikes are not in great shape, but I can usually always find one that is pretty good.
Excellent way to get around the city! So far there was at least 2 - 3 bikes available for riding at all the bike stands that I have been too. I recommend BayWheels to tourist as well as residents of SF, it's a win-win situation; both for the environment and the riders...
A great service for us active dudes! pricing us good, all fun and top rank. gracias a Vosotros!
Bike Angel's points dissapear once you undock a bike. Ensure points remain visible during the bike ride.
I'm at a docking station attempting to use the app for the first time. Of course, I'm already signed in and it shows my profile picture. I scan the QR code to unlock the bike and what happens next? The app asks me for my birthdate. And, the only option I have is to scroll through the months. Not set the year, then the day and then the month. No, I'm expected to scroll through hundreds of months in order to get to my birthdate. There is no way to set this date before hand, say in Settings
Even renting a car would be cheaper than this! Highly Non recommended! Renting an ebike for 2h to drive 10miles cost 50$ this is absolutely way too much.
great service, great bikes
