I was in Shanghai for a while and bought 2 bikes there (both got stolen).
This was the first one made by Forever
Singlespeed with rod brakes and big bell.



It was stolen when I was in Hong Kong for 2 weeks. That wasnt too bad since its only $30 and
I had an excuse to buy another one
This time I went for a work bike with a massive golden rim in the rear that they also put on the
work trikes. The bike was really heavy and solid but I still managed to bend the crank on the
first day trying to pedal up a little ramp. The right technique to go uphill on these bikes is shown
here by a gentleman Hong Kong.





Cycling in Shanghai is just awesome. They still havent sold their soul to cars completely like
in Hong Kong. You can get anywhere on a bike very quickly. Nobody seams to follow any
traffic rules but it still feels safer than in lots of other cities because everybody rides pretty
much the same speed and its like being in a flock of birds.



Here on the lower right side you can see the street where I bought the bikes.
