Mobike / 摩拜

Mobike appears in No.199 自行车 200年 as the shared-bike operator whose vehicles are used to illustrate custom hardware risk. The source says Mobike-style bikes used features such as solid tires, reinforced unusual frames, and non-removable electronic locks, making them less suitable for resale into ordinary consumer channels if platform demand collapsed.

Mobike therefore complements the [[Ofo|OFO]] receivables story. OFO shows order and payment pressure, while Mobike’s design choices make Shared-Bike Manufacturing Shock visible as Inventory Write-Down Risk: the asset is valuable only if the specific platform use case survives.
