Yup, over the past few years, station-based bikeshares like Citibike have done a great job at showing the bikes as a public resource can work, and help develop biking into a legitimate commute option.
This is a tough comparison since, as far as I can tell, you park the bike anywhere. So there is no incentive like most city bike sharing systems to get it to a kiosk that acts as a big lock. I'm done with my ride, I get off, stop my ride on my phone, and walk away leaving the bike where it is...
While the bike is docked, you can still trash the bike. People aren't doing that though, which is what's surprising. (Occasionally some stickers turn up. But surprisingly infrequently.)
