My bike is a standard bicycle that I converted into an electric bike using a conversion kit. It’s equipped with a motor in the rear wheel, a battery, and two solar panels on the rack. I can adjust the angle of the solar panels to catch as much sunlight as possible. The bike can be disassembled in 20 minutes and returns to its normal size, making it easy to take on the train. I built this solar bike in 2025 and have ridden 3,500 km on it without any technical issues.
