Chinese bike-sharing platform Mobike has announced that it is tapping into Italy, the fourth overseas market for the company. The company is putting 8,000 bikes into the market.

Mobike has launched 6 million bikes into more than 150 cities worldwide. It now has more than 100 million registered users.

Mobike's major Chinese competitors, ofo and Bluegogo, have also expanded into overseas markets. 

In this edition of our show, we are going to talk about the performance of these bike-sharing companies in foreign countries. It has been reported that some cities face similar problems as we have in China, like bikes locked as personal property and vandalism.
