How it works

Top Up.
Every Time You Park.

Forget about "fully charging" your bike. This is in-situ energy generation - power created exactly where your bike is, the moment you park.

01

Unfold

Open your pannier. The patent-pending folding mechanism opens your full panel array in just 10 seconds.

02

Cover & aim

Drape over your bike and position toward the sun. Your bike is shaded and protected while it charges.

03

Plug in

Connect the AC output to your eBike's own charger. Plug that into your bike. Works with any brand, any model.

04

Top up & ride

Every hour in the sun adds more range. You never need to think about "fully charging" again - just top up whenever you park.

A smarter way to think about charging

Forget Full.
Top Up.

Most people wait hours for their eBike to reach 100% — then wonder why their battery degrades faster than expected. That's actually the worst habit you can have with a lithium battery.

Modern eBike batteries last significantly longer when kept between 20–80% charge. And here's the good news — with the Solar eBike Cover, you never need to wait for a full charge again. Every time you park in the sun, you top up a little. Come back to more range than you left with.

No more planning rides around charging time. No more waiting at cafés hunting for a power point. Just park, open, and let the sun do the work while you do yours.

In-situ energy generation

Power generated exactly where your bike is — no waiting for a charge session, no hunting for outlets. The sun charges your bike on the spot, continuously.

🔋

Better for your battery

Frequent small top-ups keep your battery in the optimal 20–80% range. Fewer full charge cycles means longer battery life and better performance every ride.

🌞

No more waiting

Traditional charging ties you to a power point for hours. Top-up solar charging happens passively while you're parked — you come back to more range, not a charging session.

BONUS FEATURE

☀️🛡️

It Charges and Protects Your Bike

Our trial rider Ken noticed something we hadn't even marketed — the Solar eBike Cover doubles as a protective sun cover for your bike.

Park in the sun, drape it over your bike, and you're charging while keeping your battery, frame and components cool. Two problems solved with one product.

Top-up charging keeps battery in optimal 20–80% range

Extends battery lifespan — fewer full charge cycles

Protects battery from heat degradation in direct sun

Keeps seat and handlebars cool on hot days

Charges while it covers — no trade-off

Spare space in box for your eBike charger

Works on eTrikes, eCargo bikes and eMopeds too

COMPATIBILITY

Your Bike.
Any Bike.

We solved the compatibility problem by working through your eBike's own charger. One solution that works with every brand on the planet — forever.

No adaptors.
No modifications.
No guesswork.

Plug our AC output into your existing charger. Plug that into your bike. Exactly like charging at home — but powered by the sun.

What Our 
Trial Riders Say

Three riders across South Australia and Western Australia put the first version through its paces in the real world.

★★★★★

Plugged the charger in before opening the panels and it's working perfectly. Looking forward to more testing.

It works on my eTrike. A great concept that works — I particularly like the mechanism. The panels protect the eBike from the sun. That's a big plus.

I can honestly say I'm impressed. Performed beyond expectations. Charging 2 bikes completely off grid in outback WA. It will save me taking the generator.

We Fixed It.

Three real riders proved the concept. They also helped us make it better. Here's what changed.

Trial 1 — 3 units · SA & WA

The concept proved itself

Three real riders. Real terrain. Outback WA, coastal SA. The folding panel worked. The solar charging worked. "Performed beyond expectations."

TRIAL 2 - THE FIX

Universal compatibility — any bike, instantly

The new version powers your eBike's own charger via AC output. Works with every brand on the planet. No adaptors. No modifications. Forever compatible.

🔌

Why AC output is the right solution

Instead of connecting directly to your battery, our system powers your existing eBike charger — the one that came with your bike. That charger already knows exactly how to talk to your battery. So we work with every bike ever made, the day you unbox it.

Direct DC charging (zero conversion loss) is on our roadmap as a future option.

ABOUT THE COMPANY

Made by SOLEV

SOLEV is an Australian-owned company designing clean energy solutions for the way Australians actually live — outdoors, off-grid, and on the move.

The Solar eBike Cover is our first product — built after watching eBike riders struggle with range anxiety and carrying heavy solar setups on tours. We knew there had to be a better way.

As seen at Eurobike 2025 — the world's largest cycling trade show.
