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 means that you can ride more safely while also maintaining full control of the display and your eBike. The navigation function reliably takes you to your destination with its clear map display and information on arrival time and distance.

Secure grip

On paved roads or surfaced 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 rubberised surface; the charging socket and speakers are freely accessible.

*The SmartphoneGrip is not suitable for steps with a height of over 15 cm or for jumps.
**The supported dimensions of the smartphones used incl. camera bump and case are as follows: H: 6.8 –13 mm, W: 67 - 88 mm, L: 123 – 175 mm. Suitable for smartphones up to a total weight of 276 g 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 fix the Kiox 300 to the display mount. Kiox 300 is suitable for sporty use, while your smartphone is the ideal 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 colours and light patterns. For example, if the LED is yellow, your smartphone is charging inductively using wireless technology.

Individual positioning

Attach the SmartphoneGrip to the handlebar near the stem, where you have the best view of the display or where it seems best to you in terms of look and feel. Depending on where you want to position the SmartphoneGrip, different display interfaces are used.

*In eMTB mode, the level of support varies between Tour and Turbo riding modes.
**In Tour+ mode, the level of support varies between Eco and Turbo riding modes.

All the available riding modes can be flexibly combined on eBikes with the smart system. Exceptions in this case are Cargo mode and Race mode, which are only available for eBikes with the Cargo Line or the Performance Line CX Race Limited Edition. 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, the Race, Cargo, Turbo, Auto, eMTB, Sport, Tour+, Tour and Eco modes can be configured according to individual needs via the eBike Flow app. The support, dynamics, maximum torque and maximum speed can be set within the specified limits. It's not possible to customise your riding mode on S-pedelecs.

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.

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, 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 and your eBike – and your eBike to the digital world. You can use the app to control all functions of the smart system, which networks the drive unit, the battery and the control unit. It allows you to adapt the eBike to your needs, upgrade it and keep it up to date. You simply download new features and services. You can conveniently install updates for your eBike via Bluetooth. This keeps your eBike up to date and continuously upgraded with new features. This is how you can improve your riding experience.
 

Keeps your flow.

The new Bosch eBike ABS lets you brake more safely. It prevents your front wheel from locking or slipping. You remain safely in the saddle even during spontaneous braking – whether you are on firm asphalt or slippery gravel paths. Because every eBike is different, there is no one-size-fits-all ABS. Instead, there's the right ABS for your eBike type, supporting your braking process in the best possible way.

FAQs & more

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

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

Yes. Yes, this is possible. Opening the screw on the handlebar clamp lets you align the display mount. Once the desired alignment has been set, the screw is retightened.

There is also the option to adjust the tilt angle of the smartphone. For this purpose, loosen the screw on the side of the holding arm and set the desired angle. Because of the locking mechanism, the angle can be adjusted in increments of about 20°. Once the right position has been found, the screw is retightened.

Note: After mounting the smartphone, make sure that the smartphone is not able to contact any fixed parts on the bike, even due to vibration. This could permanently damage the smartphone.

Please make sure that your eBike is not permanently 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.
