    sorry to go back to my original query, but would like to understand the voltage and ampere values mean.

    i take it that the higher the voltage, the faster I can ride it  and the amperage reflects the range before having to recharge?

    60V and 16-20A respectively should be sufficient for daily commutes?

    what lifespan do the batteries normally have?

    if I get a second hand bike with 72V battery, can I replace this w a 60V battery?

    cheers

    thanks for all the responses and insights so far!

    I should share that I will only be here for 6-8 months, so dont really want to invest too heavily in a brand new ebike/scooter, especially now I learned that there are robbing gangs around. I really dont care about fancy/pimped up stuff, just need something to take me comfortably from A-B, and which allows me to take the missus on the back as well.

    I guess it should be safe enough to park in basement of my office and compound building respectively, but will buy a big lock when heading to other destinations.

    Budget suggestions are well noted. Am considering the big turtle vs something like this

    alternative

    Any thoughts on how these compare??

    cheers

    thanks for responses so far!

    where is this pet market? is this ‘one of those places’ where dogs/cats/ferrets and others are being masshandled, or is there actually some cleanliness/order to it?

    thanks all for the helpfull advise. gives us a bit more piece of mind that our budget would allow us for some saving. on another note – is there any regular (weekly or monhtly) meet-up where us Chengdu-newbies can meetup, socialize and share first impressions? cheers!
