Montreal is the first Canadian city to offer the Uber-owned bike company that rents out electric bicycles for $0.30 per minute.
Users can book rides through both the JUMP and Uber apps and pay by the minute. Unlike BIXIs however, these bikes don’t need to be parked exclusively at designated dock stations but instead at city-installed bike racks.
The e-bikes are equipped with a GPS map that can be activated through the smartphone app.
The map, available on both the Uber and JUMP apps, shows how many bikes are rentable at specific bike racks throughout Montreal’s map.
JUMP-hopefuls can visit the website or download the app for more information.
