I do not believe that the City has yet selected a vendor for its bikeshare program. Bixi is the system in use in Montreal. This is a good example of the bikes that will be likely be available in Boston but the article talks a lot about the specifics, and since a vendor hasn't been chosen yet officially I think it's a bit early to say that these are the ones.

Bixi was selected in July. They beat out two other companies.
