Rekola is a bicycle sharing system in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. It started in Prague in 2013 as a small project of Vít Ježek. As of 2025, it is operating in eight Czech cities, Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia and in the Estonian city of Tallinn. The company is operating more than 2,000 bikes, most of which are located in Prague.
