Chinese ride-hailing company Didi Chuxing has ensured its dominance in the bike-sharing space with the masterstroke move of making rivals Ofo and Bluegogo part of its app. Both firms enjoy financial backing from Didi, and adding their unbranded services to the app makes it less likely many of Didi's 450 million users will tap on them. The new app, which is available for download now, allows riders to pay a flat fee per trip or use an unlimited number of bikes at any time.

However, rival firm Mobike which, alongside Ofo has chipped away at the short journey market, is not part of the app.
