The history of bike vandalism is as long as the history of shared bikes. More than 50 years ago, Amsterdam’s Witte Fietsen — or White Bikes service — closed in a matter of days after people either stole the free, unlocked bikes or threw them into canals and rivers. In the decades since, cities and companies have launched restricted versions of this model where riders leave shared bikes in specific places using docking stations.

自共享单车诞生以来，破坏行为就一直不断。50多年前，阿姆斯特丹的白色单车(Witte Fietsen)服务推出没几天就关闭了，因为人们要么偷走这些免费的、未上锁的自行车，要么将它们扔进运河和河流里。在此后的几十年里，许多城市和公司推出了有桩版共享单车服务，用户须将自行车停在特定的停放点。

Mobike’s biggest vandals are in Manchester, where bikes have often ended up in bins and in the canal, according to two employees with knowledge of the situation.

据两位知情员工透露，破坏摩拜单车最严重的地方是曼彻斯特，自行车在那里常常被扔进垃圾箱和运河里。

Docked biking schemes have faced problems too. Santander, which sponsors London’s public bike hire service, was forced temporarily to close a number of docking stations in Milton Keynes after more than half its bikes were damaged or stolen.

有桩共享单车服务也面临问题。资助伦敦公共自行车租赁服务的桑坦德银行(Santander)在它一半以上的自行车遭损毁或盗窃后，曾被迫暂时关闭了米尔顿凯恩斯的多个停放点。
