Better Biking

A Free Flow subscription means that your bike is yours for as long as you want.
You don't have to return it to stations or worry about someone taking it from where you park it.
Your bike will always work and will always be there when you need it.We promise.

Our Philosophy

Vision:
To make long-distance unnecessary where possible, and as fast as possible when necessary
Mission:
We serve our vision by creating multimodal networks where none currently exist and improving on existing systems to make them more efficient.
This mission is served by providing a bike subscription (℠) program that puts people in touch with community businesses, brings down the cost of cycling, gives people a means to travel sustainably, and makes communities safer.

Our Story

Free Flow was started in fall 2017 by two Northwestern students as a bike rental company for low-income students in Chicago. Many low-income students live far away from campus to save money, which ends up taking more time to get to-and-from campus. As a result, these students tend to be the least involved on-campus even though they're most likely to benefit from on-campus resources and activities.
The rental service took off.
After the first year, we began looking for ways to scale the service to serve more students. We brought on other students to help market, to expand the website, and to build and maintain the bikes. We brought our data and surveys to our school's Transportation Office, Sustainability Office, and submitted grant applications that clearly showed how the program benefits low-income students and drives greater student engagement in campus life.
The idea was passed over.
Going to a local incubator for advice, we were told to switch to a digital-only service or consider something along the lines of a peer-to-peer bike share service. We didn't agree, as this approach had already been tried to little success (the only examples we could find had all gone bankrupt), so we began interviewing our customers, bike shop owners, bike mechanics, and even a few bike thieves to find out where we were going wrong.
Bike subscriptions (℠) came directly from those interviews.
This generally describes our business philosophy: innovation rooted in altruism, and transportation as a means to correct economic wrongs.

FAQ's

What is a bike subscription (℠)?
It's exactly what it sounds like: a bike and everything you need to ride it, priced out in monthly increments. This includes a bike from a local shop, security hardware and a thick lock, regular maintenance and a team working 24/7 to deter thieves and reduce theft.
How do I reserve a bike?
Check out the bikes in the Free Flow Library and find a style and size that works for you. Then, go through our booking process and put at least one payment method on file so we can give you some appointment windows when you can pick up your bike from the shop.
What happens if my bike is stolen?
If your bike is stolen, fill out a Missing Bike Report as soon as possible so we can begin the process of recovering it. (With the security hardware in each frame, it will likely let us know that it has been stolen before you do.) After we've gathered as many details as possible, we'll dispatch our recovery team and notify local law enforcement. We charge a Recovery Fee whenever a bike is stolen or goes missing, but that fee is returned (whole or in part) when we recover your bike. Whether or not we recover your bike, as soon as the Recovery Fee is paid we will have a replacement bike ready and waiting at the bike shop.
What does Free Flow do?
Free Flow brings complex logistics together under one umbrella. We build relationships with local bike shops, so when someone comes to the Free Flow Marketplace we can step in and act as an agent to bundle a subscription and support services for them at a lower price than would be possible when buying everything separately. We also provide all the tools that bike shops need to put their inventory in motion immediately.
Are there any fees besides my monthly subscription?
There are some special cases where we have to charge fees and they're all listed here (also outlined in your final Subscription Agreement):

ReasonFee
Damage (Beyond Wear & Tear)Cost of repairs
Missing/Misplaced Bike  Recovery Fee (based on bike's value)
 Missing/Misplaced Lock  $200/Lock
 Missing/Misplaced Key $15/Key
 Failure to Use Lock No less than $1000
 Failure to Report Theft  No less than $1000
Tampering with Hardware  No less than $1000

How are subscriptions priced?
Subscriptions are priced at a flat rate of $50 so that the retail bike value stays within a $400-600 range. Combined with the lock, maintenance, and theft protection the total value of your subscription is upwards of $1,000. Free Flow charges customers a flat 3% agency fee that is included in the subscription price we list on the website, along with taxes and fees: what you see is what your payment method will be charged each month.
What happens if my bike is damaged in a crash?
If you are injured, call 911 immediately. You or a friend should also call the police precinct where the crash took place and file a report with an officer to make sure that all important information is documented.
Within 24 hours of the incident, you should also notify Free Flow of the facts of the crash by filling out a Bike Damage Report.
Your bike remains your responsibility throughout the length of your subscription. If you are unable to navigate your bike to your shop for repair, let us know and we'll make arrangements to have the bike picked up.
Do I have insurance with my subscription?
No, your subscription does not provide or include an insurance policy. However, a renters or homeowners insurance policy would apply to your bike in the event it is stolen, and Free Flow's Recovery Fee can be counted towards your deductible. Confirm that your insurance policy covers bikes, as some require you to notify them that you'd like your bike covered.
All of Free Flow's security, protections, and theft deterrents are just that: deterrents. While the likelihood of us recovering a stolen bike is infinitely higher than the average bike, it's much easier if it's never stolen in the first place. We've done all we can to make it an absolute nightmare to steal your bike, but we still need your help to end bike theft globally.Is my personal information safe?
Your privacy and the security of your data is important to us, and we encourage you to read our Privacy Policy. We use secure encryption at all levels of our website to protect your identity and keep your personal information safe.
Regarding your bike, we've put a lot of thought and consideration into the technology we use to protect bikes against theft. We don't track routes, where you go, or what you do with your bike—that's your business. Our hardware lets us know when someone is touching something they shouldn't, when the bike has been stolen or in a crash, or we activate our transmitters in the frame to recover the bike.

Green Papers (Coming Soon!)

Green Papers are our version of policy recommendations.
They lay out foundational principals and ideas that can be implemented into policy proposals at the municipal, state, and nationwide level.
Some are based on positive economic ideas (e.g. Mobility is essential to escape from poverty) and others are more normative (e.g. Governments should not subsidize programs that produce negative externalities).

When the travel supplier processes your payment, it will be processed in the country in which the travel supplier is based.
Free Flow or the travel supplier may have to verify: (i) the validity of the payment card (through a charge of a nominal value that is either refunded within a few days or deducted from the final payment due to the travel supplier) and, (ii) the availability of funds on the payment card (to be confirmed by the bank issuing your credit card).
Some banks and credit card companies impose fees for international or cross border transactions. For instance, if you are making a booking using a US-issued card with a non-US merchant, your bank may charge you a cross-border or international transaction fee. Furthermore, booking international travel may be considered an international transaction by your bank or card company, since we may pass your card details to an international travel supplier to be charged. In addition, some banks and card companies impose fees for currency conversion. For instance, if you are making a booking in a currency other than the currency of your credit card, your credit card company may convert the booking amount to the currency of your credit card and charge you a conversion fee. The currency exchange rate and foreign transaction fee is determined solely by your bank on the day that they process the transaction. If you have any questions about these fees or the exchange rate applied to your booking, please contact your bank.
