First of all, in terms of development potential. Personally, I think mobike has greater development potential. In terms of cost, the cost in mobike is higher. Although the initial operation requires a lot of investment, the company has invested a lot of money in bicycles to ensure that the scrap rate is kept at a low level and safe, so that mobike can save a lot of money when recycling scrapped bicycles and lost bicycles in the later period. In this way, mobike actually has more strength for long-term development. Although ofo can be put into the market on a large scale at the beginning because of its low cost, it is easier to occupy the market and win by quantity, but the safety factor of ofo is low and it is easier to be lost. Moreover, due to its low cost and high scrap rate, it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to maintain damaged cars to ensure the use of consumers. Therefore, from the above comparison, mobike has greater development potential, which determines that mobike has higher usability and better riding experience. So mobike has a better riding experience.
Then, from the perspective of consumer psychology. The deposit required by ofo is only 99 yuan, which is not very heavy for college students and middle and lower class people. Compared with mobike, it is easier to occupy the market. However, in the later stage of development, consumers will find that although mobike is everywhere, many of them can't be used normally, and for people in the middle and lower classes, it is too expensive to use ofo as one of the necessary means of transportation for daily travel. But mobike is different. At present, more office workers regard it as a way of fitness after work, regardless of the deposit and riding expenses.
So to sum up, mobike has a better riding experience.
