The subject 'bikes' is plural, so the pronoun referring back to it should be plural ('they'), and the verb should match ('help' not 'helps'). Also remove the unnecessary 'to' after 'help' when followed by a bare infinitive: 'help people find'. Suggestion: ensure pronouns and verbs agree in number and adjust verb forms after 'help'.
