Solar Wheel Panel

PROCESS 01 · MANUFACTURING

How the Solar Wheel Panel Is Made

  1. BC solar cells are soldered into connected strings.​
  2. The connected cell strings are laminated with protective layers.​
  3. The laminated flexible module is laser-cut into a circular Solar Wheel Panel.

PROCESS 02 · INSTALLATION

How the Panels Are Installed

PHOSGO’s circular Solar Wheel Panels are installed on spoke wheels. Two panels are mounted on opposite sides of each wheel and secured together with multiple pairs of locking screws—for a total of four panels across the front and rear wheels.​
The modular design makes the panels easier to install, remove, and service without altering the wheel’s original spoke pattern. This helps preserve normal spoke tension, flexibility, and riding characteristics.

Dual-Mode Charging

Ride Mode

Power While You Ride

While the bike is moving, solar power helps drive the motor, reducing the amount of energy drawn from the battery.

Park Mode

Recharge While You Park

When the bike is parked in sunlight, solar power is redirected to recharge the battery.

THE TECHNOLOGY

How Solar Energy Powers the Ride

01

Solar Wheel Panels

Solar energy is captured by panels integrated into the wheel.

02

Conductive Hub

Power is transferred through the wheel hub.

03

Solar Controller

The controller regulates incoming solar power.

04

E-Bike Electrical System

Stored energy supports the bike's electrical system.

WHY THE WHEELS?

We Explored Every Possibility

Before arriving at a wheel-integrated solar design, we evaluated roof-mounted, frame-integrated, trailer-based, portable and rear-rack solutions. Each presented a different compromise. The wheel offered a more natural way to make solar power part of the bike itself.

PERFORMANCE

Performance Built Around the Ride

From precise electronic shifting to responsive suspension and hydraulic braking, the Go5 Ultra is designed to deliver a smoother, more controlled riding experience across changing terrain.

ELECTRONIC SHIFTING

Shifting That Keeps Up

The electronic shifting system enables precise, button-controlled gear changes for smooth transitions during acceleration, climbing and cruising.

5 Pedal-Assist Modes

Power That Adapts to Every Ride

BRAKING CONTROL

Confident, Controlled Braking

Hydraulic disc brakes with 180 mm rotors at both the front and rear provide smooth, responsive braking control across changing road and riding conditions.

DUAL SUSPENSION COMFORT

110 mm Up Front. 35 mm Under the Saddle.

A 110 mm adjustable air-suspension fork absorbs larger bumps and uneven terrain, while the suspension seatpost provides 35 mm of travel to help reduce vibration beneath the rider. Together, they deliver a smoother, more controlled ride across changing surfaces.

SECURITY

Double Protection for Every Ride

Combine physical locking with connected smart-security features to help protect your Go5 when it is parked.

PHYSICAL CONNECTED
PHYSICAL PROTECTION

Three Ways to Lock Your Go5

Use a high-quality physical lock whenever your bicycle is left unattended.

LOCKING GUIDE
Watch Locking Guide
WAY 01

Secure the Frame

Pass a high-quality chain lock through the main frame and secure it to a sturdy, permitted fixed object.

WAY 02

Immobilize the Crank

Route the chain through the crank or pedal area to help prevent the bicycle from being ridden away.

WAY 03

Add a Disc-Brake Lock

Fit a compatible disc-brake lock to the brake rotor to prevent the locked wheel from rotating. Always remove it before riding.

Chain locks and disc-brake locks can be selected as optional accessories where available.

CONNECTED SECURITY

Stay Connected to Your Go5

Connected features can help riders monitor the bicycle and respond when unexpected movement is detected.

01

Movement Alerts

When security mode is active, unexpected movement can trigger an alert to help you respond.

02

Location Awareness

Use available connected location tools to check your bicycle's reported position.

03

Added Peace of Mind

Connected security tools add another layer of awareness when your Go5 is parked.
