What is the situation regarding e-bikes in China?

Is it legal to buy electric bikes in CHINA ? As i hear it is illegal and i find it funny as it is the single biggest supplier of e-bikes in the world.

Almost 15 million sold in China in 2017. That's a lot of batteries, and tires.

Do you mean ebike or electric scooter? E-bikes are mainly produced but not used much in china. Scooters are widely used all over china.

Depend on each city law. Some legal, some illegal.
