This paper explores public bicycle choice behavior for urban travelers and potential travelers who may use public bicycle systems. Factors influencing public bicycle choice behavior and current public bicycle usage in China were analyzed. Then primary factors of public bicycle choice behavior among those using different travel modes were studied using the binary logistic model. Influential factors were divided into internal and external factors. High prediction accuracy of the proposed model shows that BLM can predict the public bicycle choice behavior of urban residents. Results show that travel distance, convenience of transferring to public transit, and cycling safety are the three main factors that determine whether private car owners would choose the public bicycles. For walkers, walking distance and red light waiting time are the main factors. For users of public transit, travel distance, walking distance to public transit transfer, and automobile exhaust are the three main influential factors.
