S$49 is I guess not that big a loss for a bicycle, buying one yourself is probably more expensive.
What happens to the bikes then? I can imagine they're being stored left and right now.

As an example here a (German) video comparing oBike and a "normal" bike rolling down a small hill: https://youtu.be/9bTnwJc5gzc
There are probably better ways to spend those bucks.
German c't magazine did a review of various rental bikes in Germany and found OBike to be the worst by far. They also got their hands on an offer for their bikes. Apparently these bikes cost 69€ (S$112) if you buy 1000 of them.
