LinkBike is a state-supported private initiative to make George Town a more cycling-friendly city. It is operated by Fast Rent Bike (PG) Sdn Bhd, which has been installing electronically operated bicycle-rental docking stations, to eventually cover 25 locations within the City of Penang Island, from Straits Quay in the north down to Queensbay in the south.
To use LinkBike, one should first sign up at their website where one buys credit. To pick up a bike from any of the docking station, scan the QR Code on the LinkBike app with a smartphone, or use a LinkBike card. The bicycle can then be taken off the docking station and ridden anywhere on Penang Island, to be returned to the same or different docking station.
LinkBike offers very attractive rentals for bicycles, at just RM2 for a 24-hour period, RM3 for 48 hours, RM4 for 72 hours, RM10 for 7 days, RM20 for 1 month and a whole year for a mere RM30, making it even cheaper to rent a LinkBike than to buy your own bicycle.
If you have any questions, you may call the LinkBike Hotline at 016 512 9292

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
