Unless they're planned in from the beginning, they steal space from the other lanes, making them narrower. And it's also common that they'll start and stop in strange places, leving riders stranded in mid-traffic.

A badly planned bike lane is often worse than no bike lane at all.

Why do you need bike lanes?

Usually you don't really "need" a bike lane, but if it's a properly planned one it can make riding easier. It lets motorists know that you have the right to be there, and hopefully pedestrians will give you a clear path. Trouble is, many bike lanes are added as an afterthough, so they can be poorly planned and actually be more trouble than help.
