In 1952, 43 years after Michio Suzuki opens the Suzuki Loom Works in the small coastal village of Hamamatsu, and 32 years after the Suzuki Loom Manufacturing Co. was formed, Suzuki builds its first motorised bicycle, the 'Power Free'. Designed to be inexpensive and easy to maintain, it uses a 36cc, two-stroke engine clipped to the frame of a conventional bicycle. The Power Free's unique double sprocket gear system allows riders to pedal without engine assistance, with engine assistance, or to travel completely under the engine's own power.
