    Taking your ebike into a coffee shop, art gallery, etc even if they allow you as a joke or for fun, is clearly bad manners. And he took it into a hospital too! Wat da heck!!

    Good video, but actually few people here ride their ebikes inside. It's a little bit weird.

    I thought of doing a video about this! I live in Qingdao in the eastern edge of China! E-Bikes flood the streets every day. :) It’s magnificent.

    This blew me away. I was in Chengdu in ‘93 and it seemed like I was one of two Occidentals in town. It was soooo remote. There were as many cars in the city as were parked in one of those car parks. Forget the ebike growth, the whole city is expanding like the Milky Way. (Sorry about the smog though; the sky was clear blue then.) Blown away.

    Love the video! I'm living in Vietnam and here is also insane. More and more Ebikes everyday. So funny all the places you took the bike. Also at the end, when you get next to the people doing Tai chi LOL.
    Keep the good videos! Let me know If you ever come to Danang

      Crazy coincidence, I was in Danang just about a month ago. Really fun place, I especially liked Hoi An. It wasn't me in this video (it was Deven), but thanks for your comment.

    Great little docu that! Great presenter! erm... my wife tells me that it is illegal to carry a passenger on an ebike? Is this true?

    • @ChengduLiving
      @ChengduLiving  6 років тому

      No, I don't think that is true. If it's true, thousands of people are violating that law here and no one seems to care.

    • @skyym3629
      @skyym3629 6 років тому

      Music with Morals .... If there is a place for and foot rests for a passenger, you are good. If there isn't and they are just sharing the seat with you, then a Policeman can be picky and make a deal about it.
      Thx and God Bless

    • @jonsmit3819
      @jonsmit3819 6 років тому +5

      Absolutely. He is the only one riding an ebike in a cafe, a hospital, an art gallery, an elevator, and a dancing class. See the looks on the locals' faces watching him? They probably think this white barbarian has no idea of human decency... but he is a guest, so let him do his barbarian thing. This is called culture.

    • @blackjack23able
      @blackjack23able 6 років тому +1

      He's totally ignoring his white privilege which is the only reason he can take that bike in those idiotic places

    • @engin3ar
      @engin3ar 6 років тому

      Chinese people take bikes into the same places.

    • @engin3ar
      @engin3ar 6 років тому

      If you're a foreigner in China, you are probably already used to people staring at you. It happens all the time.

    • @engin3ar
      @engin3ar 6 років тому

      I think you are wrong about that. Foreigners get stared at all the time here, regardless of how they act.

    Ebikes will never work in America, even in heavily congested cities like LA and NYC because people *need* to have their own personal tanks

    • @ChengduLiving
      @ChengduLiving  6 років тому

      I don't follow. You charge an ebike just like you refill an automobile or motorcycle with fuel.

    • @samin90
      @samin90 6 років тому

      People in America don't care about practicality, they care about looks and the perception of safety. There's a reason why SUV and truck sales are through the roof here and the F150 is one of the most popular family cars
      Maybe when gas prices skyrocket and we have another recession when everyone defaults on their auto loans ebikes might have a chance, and I really hope they do, but sadly right now they're mostly used by people with suspended licenses because of DUIs and weirdos in Silicon Valley

    • @ChengduLiving
      @ChengduLiving  6 років тому

      Ebikes only make sense in very dense urban spaces, which China is filled with, so their popularity here makes sense when you look at it in that way. America has a distinctly suburban, highway culture which necessitates cars but most places in China are not really like that.
