Dear Andrew,
I enclose a photo of a cyclemotor that my son saw parked when he was visiting Beijing. He told me that it was the only one that he had seen. It looks like a modern Chinese bicycle with some sort of clip-on; do you or any of the readers recognise it? Both the coil and plastic petrol tank seem to be clipped to the frame. The double security locks seem to suggest that it's someone's prized possession!
