A Bad Start With A Happy Ending
Had a HORRIBLE experience with renting my bike and ending the trip docking it. Was a little disappointed with how difficult it was for a newcomer to try to rent a bike for only half an hour, but this entire experience was negated by one of the most superior customer service experiences I’ve ever had. Marie (I definitely want to give her a shoutout!) spoke with me on the phone and was not only patient, but went above and beyond what I expected customer service would be for a $2 bike ride around DC. I had an issue docking my bike, and she was able to talk to upper management (without me even having to ask) and calm my fears as a first time user of the service. Now that I’m aware of how the system works, I would definitely recommend renting a bike through this company in the city (especially if you want to put in the exercise and save money over Uber, scooters, and other ride share/renting services).

Convenient and good customer service
Capital BikeShare is awesome. My work provides a discounted yearly membership for unlimited rides which definitely makes me use the bikes more than I normally would. The locations are convenient. I can park and lot have to worry about locking my bike or returning to the parked location. I’ve only had one issue when my bike didn’t lock upon return, but the customer service was great and they easily took care of it. High recommend!

Great once you get the hang of it
Having previously only used dockless share bikes in Beijing, the CaBi bikes are so nice! The app is straightforward and the route planning function is great. My criticisms aren’t with the app though: The way you choose a subscription level is unnecessarily complicated and the keypads on some of the docks are consistently broken, making it hard to retrieve a bike sometimes. Otherwise, great experience.
