It is not an e-bike, it is too fast. It is not a moped, it has no pedals. It is a noped. The Pocket Rocket from SOL Motors defines a whole new category of electric two-wheelers. We present to you a light bike made of aluminum with tremendous power delivery, radical design, and practical connectivity. An approach that takes tech, design, functionality, and handling to the next level.
In the heart of Stuttgart, the cradle of two- and four-wheeled mobility, we are developing the Pocket Rocket some 150 years after the invention of the first motorcycle. We pursue the vision of inspiring people today for sustainable mobility with the goal of reducing emissions, maintaining comfort, and increasing the quality of life.
Our mission is to provide you with a silent and sustainable means of transportation that combines function and performance in a timeless design. We invite anyone with a lust for life and a sense of responsibility to enjoy a piece of future with us. Join us on a journey to experience mobility in a new way and to write the history of modern locomotion.
The Pocket Rocket is "the naked bike", the archetype for today's minimalist. Everything is hidden in the V-Frame. Removable battery, controls, as well as rear and front headlights are harmoniously and well protected, integrated inside the frame. The aluminum design reduces the shape and silhouette to the maximum and makes an eye-catching statement in urban spaces.
The Pocket Rocket feels at home in narrow city centers and when commuting over medium distances. Weighing only 65 kg, this bike is a real lightweight in its class. It offers you comfortable handling, range and speed up to 80 km/h. The robust 16-inch wheels made of cast aluminum provide brisk driving and agile maneuvers.
The wheels and the hub motor integrated in the rear wheel, provide an optimal, low centre of gravity, and provide stability with maximum control in any driving situation. Once the battery is empty you simply take it out of the frame and dock it to the next best power outlet. Speed has never been so easy and comfortable to control.
The Pocket Rocket is based on a simple idea: omit what is not necessary. The technological goal: a lightweight, efficient, and environmentally friendly Light Electric Vehicle (LEV). The hub motor delivers power directly to the road. The hydraulic Combined Braking System (CBS) ensures full driving control.
Brake energy recovery increases the range by feeding energy back into the battery. The 16-inch wheels provide maximum stability and agility as well as long service life. With the bright LED headlights at the rear and front, you can always keep an eye on everything.
The Pocket Rocket is offered in two performance levels. With the Pocket Rocket you reach a top speed of 45 km/h. For more speed you need the Pocket Rocket S, which makes you almost unstoppable with up to 80 km / h.

After working intensively on the first road-legal Pocket Rocket over the past few months, we are currently on the verge of launching the product. We are now taking pre-orders and plan to start delivering the first vehicles early 2023. Pre-order one of the first 100 Pocket Rockets now!
We reinvent locomotion and offer you a sustainable driving experience where pleasure is not neglected. At the same time, we attach great importance to the unique and timeless design of the Pocket Rocket. We are honoured to have won several awards for the development of the two-wheeled archetype.
