- Sainmhíniú any fully automated network of bicycles available for individuals to rent on a short term basis as a means of short distance transportation in urban areas Tagairt "Vlastos T., Vassi A.

- Nóta This system allows a cyclist to hire and collect a bicycle from one docking station and then return it at another docking station.The central concept of these systems is to provide free or affordable access to bicycles for short-distance trips in an urban area as an alternative to motorised public transport or private vehicles, thereby reducing traffic congestion, noise, and air pollution.In most cities where such a system exists, people seeking a bicycle for casual riding over several hours or days are better served by bicycle rental than by bike-share.
