  • phantom bike, n.

    The Guardian, 22 August 2018:

    There have been grumbles about glitches in the app, which frequently showed as available bikes that had long disappeared (known as phantom bikes in the local parlance), as well as complaints that the bikes were too small for anyone over about 5’8” (1.73 metres). For weeks bikes could not be repaired because the spares did not arrive from China.
