DESCRIPTION
A brief account of the cycling history in China
TRANSCRIPT
• 1870-1910: The bicycle was seen as a technological object in
China, but was mainly used by foreigners.
• 1910-1930: More people began using the bike, though this
activity was limited to coastal commercial cities where there
was a strong foreign influence.
• 1930-1949: The establishment of a domestic bicycle industry
allowed for price cuts, enabling more people to own a bike.
• 1949 onwards: The support from the Communist government
further increased the number of bike users.
