I have a bike subscription! They are fairly common in major metro areas like NYC, Philly, Boston, DC, Montreal but they are typically called bikesharing and not bike subscription because you aren't subscribing to a single working bike, you are subscribing to a network of working bikes, which actually works really well from the perspective of not worrying about it getting stolen or finding a secure place to store it. Harder to manage in lower density areas though, of course
