Zyp is a bike share program operating in Birmingham. The program was created REV Birmingham in partnership with the City of Birmingham, the Birmingham Regional Planning Commission and the Community Foundation of Greater Birmingham. Program sponsors include Regions Bank, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alabama and the Alabama Power Foundation. REV's Lindsey West is the program manager.
Zyp was launched in October 2015 with the first of 400 bright green bicycles distributed to 25 stations. 100 of the bicyles include electrically-assisted pedaling. Birmingham's is the first bike share program in the United States to offer electrically-assisted bicycles. The bicycles, charging kiosks were designed by Michael Dallaire and provided, along with GPS-enabled management software, by Bewegen of Quebec, Ontario. The bicycles themselves were manufactured by Procycle.
During its first year, the program expanded from 25 to 40 stations. As of April 4, 2016 the system has 5,812 members and has provided 20,768 trips for a total distance of 27,379 miles.
