Vince Posted July 6, 2006 at 05:21 PM Report Posted July 6, 2006 at 05:21 PM My wife is due to teach for 3 weeks in Shanghai this August. Does anyone know how easy/difficult it would be to buy a bike for me whilst she is there? The model I am after is an electric bike sold as a "Giant Suede" in the UK. Is this model available in Shanghai? How much would it cost? Shipping is not an issue as I work for an Airline!! Quote
magores Posted July 11, 2006 at 02:04 PM Report Posted July 11, 2006 at 02:04 PM Electric bicycle? In China? Yep. They exist. Not hard to find. Just curious... Why the specific model though? What's so special about it? Quote
Vince Posted July 11, 2006 at 04:39 PM Author Report Posted July 11, 2006 at 04:39 PM I am particularly after this model as it is considerably lighter than the majority of e bikes on the market. Is there a "Giant" shop in Shanghai? Quote
wushijiao Posted July 12, 2006 at 04:12 AM Report Posted July 12, 2006 at 04:12 AM There are lots of Giant shops in Shanghai (I've bought three in Shanghai, of which two were stolen), although I don't know if the product lines that those shops carry would be the same as the product lines would be in other countries. In fact, just looking at the webpage, I didn't see the "Suede". http://www.giant-shanghai.com/?gOo=c2hvcC5kd3Q In any case, she could always go to a store, or buy another electic bike somewhere else in the city.
