What happened

The number of electric bikes and scooters available for rent in Denver is set to drop by up to several hundred vehicles with the city’s switch to a new vendor.

Why it matters

Under its contract with Veo, Denver’s new micromobility supplier, the city’s fleet of bikes and scooters will be capped at 9,000.

Common ground

That’s a 6% drop from August 2025, when the number of vehicles provided by previous vendors Lime and Bird peaked at roughly 9,500.

Perspective signals
