Natural riding sensation
Get direct and powerful support in any riding situation – whether you pedal fast or slow. The Performance Line supports you with up to 75 Nm and is designed for a particularly natural riding experience. The sensitive adjustment to your riding style facilitates handling and increases riding safety.
Relaxing Auto mode
Make the ride on your eBike even more enjoyable with Auto mode. It automatically adjusts the support between Tour and Turbo depending on the riding situation, without you having to apply more power or switch between riding modes. This way you can fully focus on the road ahead and enjoy your ride to the fullest.
ABS Allroad
Safely on the road even in more challenging terrain: For sporty rides on trails off paved roads, ABS provides optimal, powerful-but-natural braking support. This way, even as an eMountainbike novice, you can ride carefree on gravel and loose surfaces.
Bosch eBike ABS is only available in the following countries: all countries of the European Union, United Kingdom, Switzerland and Norway.
Robust drive
Trust the high-quality construction of the Performance Line. It’s robust and can cope with intensive use without additional maintenance. The durable Drive Unit handles challenges from weather or difficult surfaces at all times. This makes it particularly suitable for long trekking tours.
Customise your riding modes

eBike Lock with the smart system
Activating the eBike Lock function via the eBike Flow app lets you use your smartphone as a digital key. Because motor support can only be activated with your smartphone and the Bluetooth connection, your eBike holds no attraction for thieves.
New Even better protected with eBike Alarm
The eBike Alarm is the next step for even more security for your eBike. Made possible by the ConnectModule and in interaction with eBike Lock, it expands the locking of the drive unit with a comprehensive alarm function. When you switch off your eBike, the eBike Alarm is automatically activated and deactivated when you switch it back on. This means your eBike is optimally protected at all times - without you having to do anything.
The eBike Flow app connects you to your eBike – and your eBike to the digital world. Use the app to control all functions of the smart system, which connects the drive unit, battery and control unit. It allows you to customise the eBike exactly to your preferences, enhance it and keep it up to date: You can simply download new features and services, installing updates for your eBike via Bluetooth. This keeps your eBike up to date and continuously upgraded with new features, allowing you to take your riding enjoyment to ever higher levels.
