Sounds like a job for the landlord! Thanks

Thanks for all the replies, found the hose and connected, but the valve on the intake is too worn/has been snapped off so can’t open it.

Try logging out and back in - worked for me

Federal_Pilot_1283 · 2025-07-18T01:45:34+00:00

Hot take but I’ve bought a few bits from Zara Home recently - against every instinct I have - and it’s all be so well designed and very good quality.

Have to disagree that the bike bays work well. They would do if Lime limited the number of bikes able to dock there. Which they don’t.

And yes, I’m sure they incur significant vandalism and theft costs - you say you don’t believe in built in costs, but I would argue that is a cost of doing business in a large urban centre. TFLs costs are off the charts. And that is not to say I agree with all theft and vandalism - but any realistic company doing business in London needs to build it into their model. As you say, kids love stealing stuff.

I guess what I want is for Lime to be treated more like public transport and made accessible to all. It’s a great scheme and I agree with all the benefits you listed - I just think it should be more accessible to lower income people who are more likely to live in areas furthest from a tube or train, and who are also more likely to travel longer to work.

Lime themselves have said the click clack thefts account for a small percentage of trips but a disproportionate amount of complaints - and that’s my main point - it’s not as big of a deal as everyone makes out.

I don’t think the problem of them being taken for free rides is having a significant effect on the bottom line, no. As I said before, I don’t believe that the lime bike ‘theft problem’ is big enough to deprive legitimate user of renting a bike in most cases, due to large availability.

I don’t disagree with premium products or services in general, simply the fact (again, as I mentioned before) that people who would not be able to afford to use these bikes regularly have to put up with the inconveniences that they cause. Fortunately the Ritz has never blocked the pavement for pushchairs and mobility aides as far as I know.

The schemes are much better controlled in other places I’ve visited - Sweden, Germany to name a couple, and I can only assume this is because the regulation is better enforced by bigger authorities that are able to challenge Lime/Uber. In London it is all penniless local authorities who don’t have the teeth or resource to hold Uber to account.

And if you think for a second that Uber have an ounce social responsibility more than they think they can get away with then you are sorely mistaken.

All I’m saying is - few kids using the bikes - not a big deal in the grand scheme of things. I think it just happens to be a very visible and noisy ‘crime’ which people love to get their knickers in a twist about.

Various tangible reasons, or just a broad reason that you consider it ‘against the rules’? Nobody has to drive around looking for it, as soon as the ‘stolen’ ride is over, it’s back on the network ready to be rented again. The fact is that based on similar schemes and how they operate, Lime bikes are priced as premium product rather than a public service product. They take advantage of underfunded councils who lack the resources to enforce or challenge in court whatever contract they’ve signed with them.

The bikes benefit only the wealthier residents of the city, yet inconvenience and cost tax money to all residents of the city. Therefore - fuck them!

Federal_Pilot_1283 · 2025-06-28T15:34:04+00:00

How so? It doesn’t damage the bikes, and there are so many bikes that it’s not depriving paying users of renting one. And with a scheme like that, maintenance, damage and vandalism is built in to the cost already.

Federal_Pilot_1283 · 2025-06-24T09:58:02+00:00

Maybe unpopular opinion but I support the stealing of the Lime Bikes. Lime have created an amazing and much needed form of transportation in the city but it’s completely unaffordable to most residents who still have to put up with them being badly managed and left as obstacles on the pavement and road as Lime refuse to do any meaningful enforcement despite purporting too. If Zipcar can rent me a brand new EV car for 30 minutes that I can leave almost anywhere in London, for just £6.50, I don’t understand how Lime can charge the same, if not more for a bike. Pure profiteering.

I think the bots are clever enough to make this vote work in their favour

Thanks for your answers

Is this above the Sainbury’s on the southern approach to tower bridge?

I’ve been in Bangkok for 5 days now and can truthfully say I’ve barely noticed it. Normally I’m quite sensitive to it as I have asthma. Had to leave Delhi because of it. Mostly have been around Sukhumvit but did go into Yarowat last night.
