Safe operation on the road

While riding, you control the eBike Flow app via the LED Remote, which is connected to your smartphone via Bluetooth. With the “right” and “left” buttons, for example, you can easily switch between Ride screen and Navigation without taking your hand from the handlebar. This allows you to ride more safely while maintaining full control of the display and your eBike. The Navigation function brings you reliably and safely to your destination with its clear map display and information on arrival time and distance.

Secure

On asphalt roads or paved forest and field paths*, the SmartphoneGrip holds the smartphone securely on the handlebar. The innovative and robust mount is suitable for all common smartphones with and without a case.** The back of your smartphone is protected by a rubberized surface; the charging socket and speakers are freely accessible.

* The SmartphoneGrip is not suitable for steps over six inches high, or for jumps.
**The supported dimensions of the smartphones used incl. camera bump and case are as follows: H: 0.27 – 0.5 inches, W: 2.6 – 3.5 inches, L: 4.8 – 6.9 inches. Suitable for smartphones up to a total weight of 0.6 lbs incl. case. Flip covers and wallet cases are not supported.

Fast switching between different displays

Full modularity and free choice between displays. You can use your smartphone with the SmartphoneGrip, or you can mount the Kiox 300 on the display holder. Kiox 300 is suitable for sporty use, while your smartphone is the best display for more relaxed rides, for example, through the city.

Informative charge display

On the left side of the SmartphoneGrip is an LED that indicates whether and how your smartphone is charging, by means of different colors and light patterns. For example, a yellow LED indicates that your smartphone is charging wirelessly by induction.

Custom positioning

Position your SmartphoneGrip on the handlebar where you have the best view of the display, or where it suits you best in terms of look and feel. Depending on where you want to position the SmartphoneGrip, different display holders are used.

All the available riding modes can be flexibly combined on eBikes with the smart system. Specialist dealers can activate up to four modes (in addition to Off mode) and thus adapt them perfectly to individual eBikers (unless modifications have been excluded by the bicycle manufacturer). With the help of the individual riding modes, you can configure the modes Eco, Tour, Sport and Turbo to your needs via the eBike Flow app. You can set the support, dynamics, torque and maximum speed.

Individual riding modes

You can fine-tune the Race, Cargo, Turbo, Auto, eMTB, Sport, Tour+, Tour and Eco riding modes to give you more support or to use less power.

Here's how it works

       

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 Bluetooth connection, your eBike holds no attraction for thieves.

FAQs & More

The modular display holder is required to use the SmartphoneGrip. Please note that there are two different handlebar diameters (1.25 and 1.38 inches (31.8 mm and 35 mm) (see also  operating instructions).

If you already have a Bosch smart system display installed (e.g., Kiox 300 display), a simple exchange is possible.

Yes. This is possible. The alignment of the display mount can be adjusted by opening the screw on the handlebar clamp. Once the desired alignment has been set, the screw can be tightened again.

It is also possible to adjust the tilt angle of the smartphone. To do this, loosen the screw on the side of the holding arm and set the desired tilt angle. Due to the locking mechanism, the angle can be adjusted in increments of about 20°. After the right position has been found, the screw is retightened.

Note: After mounting the smartphone, make sure that the smartphone cannot touch any fixed parts on the bike even in the event of vibration. This could permanently damage the smartphone.

Please make sure that your eBike is not continuously exposed to intense sunlight. If the temperature is too high, the SmartphoneGrip automatically switches off the charging function.

Note: All components, especially the eBike battery, can be damaged by extreme temperatures.
