Shared bikes provide flexible mobility but expose riders to harmful outdoor environments, such as humid and oppressive heat, negatively impacting the travel experience. Reducing extra travel time, particularly for open-air transport, is an effective way to minimize unnecessary environmental exposure (UEE). However, the role of extra travel time in exposure studies has received limited attention, and the relationship between the built environment and UEE remains underexplored. This study addresses these gaps by constructing complex networks of UEE based on shared bike travel flows. We first calculate each Shenzhen bike-sharing trip’s extra travel time by comparing the optimal and actual travel time. UEE is then defined as a combination of this extra travel time and the corresponding “feels-like” temperature. For each origin–destination pair, numerous UEE values of trips form a distribution, from which the maximum probability point (EP) and fluctuation (EF) are extracted as two key indicators. These two indicators, along with traffic volume, serve as the weights of network edges. After the network aggregation, spatial hotspot comparisons are conducted, followed by the application of a GCN-LIME model to explain the contribution of the built environment to UEE. The results indicate that areas associated with work, education, and high diversity inhibit the UEE, while areas with food, shops, services, and hospitals promote it. Notably, laborer communities experience higher UEE and are sensitive to changes in the built environment, underscoring issues of spatial justice. These findings provide valuable insights for policymakers to identify high-exposure areas and optimize facilities to mitigate exposure.
