예시: Yes, they are. Bicycles were very popular in the 1980s, and recently they've become popular again because more people use them for short commutes and leisure cycling, especially in cities with new bike lanes.

× Yes, I once have a bike with four wheels when I was a child.

✓ Yes, I once had a bike with four wheels when I was a child.

The sentence refers to a past time ('when I was a child'), so the main verb must be in the simple past. 'Have' is present tense; the correct past form is 'had'. Use simple past for completed past events. Suggestion: use 'had' for single past facts (I had a bike).

× They were popular back in 1980s and in and nowadays they seem to be popular again.

✓ They were popular back in the 1980s, and nowadays they seem to be popular again.

When referring to a decade, English requires the definite article 'the' plus the decade with an 's' (the 1980s). The original also contains an extra 'in' before 'nowadays' which is unnecessary. Use a comma and the conjunction 'and' to join clauses. Suggestion: write 'the 1980s' and remove the extra 'in'.
