Pricing
You can rent up to two bikes with one customer account. However, subscriptions and special conditions typically apply to the first bike only. You can change your tariff in your account settings. To correctly return a Swansea University Cycles bike you must return it to an official station.
Any Swansea University Cycles bike returned outside an official station will be subject to a £20 fine. This will increase to £40 for a second offence and £60 for a third offence. If a customer returns a Swansea University Cycles bike incorrectly more than three times, their account will be shut down.
