“A bike you don’t have to pedal!?” Can you test-ride the mobility of the future in Nishinomiya?
Glide up hills without breaking a sweat. And if you’re 16 or older, you can ride it with no license required — pretty surprising, right?
Here it is↓
Next-generation mobility brand “LIBEROTA（リベロータ）” will be holding a test-ride event at the Nishinomiya Chamber of Commerce and Industry on Friday, September 12（12:00〜19:00） and Saturday, September 13（11:00〜18:00）〜
🚲What kind of brand is LIBEROTA ( リベロータ )?
LIBEROTA（リベロータ） is a brand whose name means “mobility that lets you be free” in Latin. Its first model is the E-LIBER 01 ( イーリベル ゼロワン ) !
- No license required if you’re 16 or older
- Moves without pedaling, just by operating the throttle
- Handles hills easily with a top speed of 20 km/h
- Runs up to 43 km on a charge that costs just 10 yen
You don’t have to pedal! This could make Nishi2 reporting trips so much easier
By the way!
The E-LIBER 01 being shown at this test-ride event falls under the “specified small motorized bicycle” category, so it can be ridden on public roads🚲💨
✨Safety and comfort points
If you’re thinking, “Isn’t it scary if it goes fast?”, don’t worry.
- Meets strict EU and Japanese safety standards
- 16-inch tires plus quattro suspension reduce vibration by 52%
- Can also be ridden on sidewalks in “6 km/h mode”（in addition to roadways and bicycle lanes, this applies to sidewalks with road signs, etc. indicating “for ordinary bicycles and pedestrians only”）
- Its speed is about the same as a bicycle, so it feels reassuring（electric-assist bicycle speed[about 15 km〜24km])
It seems like it would be super easy to use for shopping or commuting〜

Finally
Even electric bicycles used to feel like, “Do we really need those?” at first, but now they’re essential, right? This E-LIBER 01 may also become “normal” a few years from now. It’s a chance to experience a vehicle of the future. If you’re curious, definitely give it a test ride.
