How the tech works

Everything a community scheme runs on.

Docks that retrofit the racks you have, an app riders use to find and unlock a bike, and a dashboard for the people running it. Works with any bike.

The scheme

How a scheme works

If people around you would ride but have no bike to hand, a scheme can start with the racks you already have.

  1. A long row of Mosa docks on steel racks along the path at RHS Bridgewater.

    Docks

    First, retrofit the racks already on site. No groundworks and no mains power, so a scheme starts small and close to where people are.

    It clamps onto ordinary racks, so there is nothing to dig, wire or wait for.

    Inclusive fleet

    Second, use any bike: adaptive, cargo, e-bikes. Students, staff, neighbours and visitors unlock a bike with an app and go.

    It works with any bike, even recycled ones.

    Inclusion

    Works with any bike.

    A scheme can include the bikes its riders need, not only the one a fleet was built around, so it is designed for every rider from the start.

    • Adaptive bikes
    • Trikes
    • Cargo bikes
    • E-bikes

    Local operations

    Finally, run it locally, with Pedal Together support. You see how it’s used, where people ride and when, so the scheme grows where it is needed.

    • Local operators Local operators run it day to day.

    • Pedal Together Coordinated through Pedal Together, a social enterprise that also supports local jobs.

    • Self-service Where local support isn’t needed, it can run self-service.

Retrofit

Fits the racks you already have.

Your scheme is built on the racks you already have. Each dock takes about ten minutes to fit, then you run it with confidence.

  1. Pick the racksUse the standard cycle racks already on site. No new street furniture.
  2. Clamp the dock onMounted directly onto the rack, by us or your contractor. The rack does not need to be modified: no digging, no wiring.
  3. Go live in the appGet your branded app and dashboard access, and riders start the same day.
  • No groundworks
  • About a ten-minute install
  • Fully off-grid
  • From 10 to 200+ docks

The system

One dock at the centre of everything.

Riders use the app, partners build on the SDK, and the people running the scheme see it all in the dashboard.

EveryoneCycles app

Find, unlock and ride. The app is the smart lock on every dock.

  • Mobile-first, app-controlled locking
  • Works with campus or community logins
  • Push notifications, support and ride logs

Mosa smart dock

Turns a standard rack into a bike share station.

  • Retrofits existing racks, no groundworks, about a ten-minute install, fully off-grid
  • Exceeds the Sold Secure Diamond standard, with zero successful thefts and no dock compromised in any live pilot
  • A year of runtime per charge
  • Works with any bike

The SDK

For organisations that want bike sharing inside an app they already run, or want to build their own.

Admin dashboard

Built for non-technical teams: no smart lock expertise needed.

  • Fleet health and location across every station
  • Set detailed pricing and usage policies
  • User groups: decide who can ride and when
  • Community analytics: usage trends, CO2 saved, active travel
