Arrival of the 20 first Pibal bikes in Bordeaux, France
This November 8th, Alain Juppé, Mayor of Bordeaux and Philippe Starck present the Pibal pre-series.
The first 20 copies of this scooter-like bike, created by Philippe Starck based on relevant suggestions of Bordeaux inhabitants and manufactured by Peugeot, will be distributed to 20 citizens who become, for the occasion, volunteer testers.
“It is from the analysis of the many suggestions from Bordeaux inhabitants, various suggestions, constructive and intelligent, and from the specificity of Bordeaux that was born this new means of locomotion. This revolutionary ergonomics seems to be an innovative and fair response to new urban problematics, especially for pedestrians areas”.
