E-bikes are becoming commonplace, and for urban commuters, they are amazingly convenient and fun to use. But what happens if you need a place to park, and are worried someone might take off with your bike?

Joey Ruiter has an answer for you, in the form of a highly unusual, yet brilliantly designed e-bike that blends in perfectly to its urban environment. So well blended in, in fact, that it entirely disguises itself for an electrical box, complete with stickers, tags, and graffiti.

When parked next to a streetlamp or another electrical box, it completely disappears, blending into the urban landscape. At the push of a button, a panel drops down to expose handlebars, and wheels that rise from the ground.

Definitely a one-off concept design more than a purchasable product, the NOMOTO is nevertheless a very clever design, and adds a bit of humor to the world of transportation.

Take a look at the video below to see people’s reactions to it being ridden.
