When I was there a few years ago, gas scooters and motorcycles appeared to be banned. Only police rode gas motorbikes. There is a definite trend to get away from a bike as soon as one's prosperity allows. It looks really dangerous to ride in most of Beijing. The Chinese have been working on e-bikes for a long time now. They were not numerous when I was there but if they have improved since then I would believe they could become popular.
