Safety

We really care about your safety. You can only really enjoy the flow on your eBike when you feel safe. We therefore work continuously on innovative solutions and advocate for safer infrastructure and responsible eBiking.

A person rides a cargo e-bike on a wet path in an urban environment. In the cargo bikes, a child wearing a blue helmet is seated. In the background, you can see buildings, trees, and flags.

The Kiox display on an eBike indicates that the eBike is locked.

eBike Lock is your free additional theft protection. Lock and unlock your eBike automatically using your phone or display as a digital key.

The eBike ABS lets you brake more safely and reduces your risk of crashing over the handlebars or sliding away when braking. When the front wheel is on the verge of locking, it regulates the brake pressure. This keeps your eBike more stable and controllable in critical situations.

On a handheld Smartphone, you can see the eBike Tracking mode of the Flow App by Bosch eBike Systems.

eBike Alarm is the premium service for even better theft protection with GPS tracking, notifications and alarm signals on the eBike.

“Only those who are safe and confident on the road, those familiar with their eBike and able to recognise and assess dangerous situations in good time, can enjoy the eBiking fascination with maximum confidence.”

Guide

With an eBike, you move quickly, accelerating faster with the support of the electric motor than with a conventional bicycle. This makes it all the more important to have properly functioning brakes. The maintenance and repair of disc and hub brakes should be carried out by experts, but you can take care of small jobs on the rim brake yourself. Find out here which simple tricks you can use to check and adjust your bicycle brake.

Guide

There are lots of aspects that every rider should take into consideration before saddling up on their eBike. Faster speed, more weight and a different riding style – we have compiled a list of the small but significant differences compared to conventional bikes.

Much that you cannot influence awaits you in traffic and on rides. Safer eBiking requires a better infrastructure and a well-developed network of cycle paths for cyclists.

We are committed to safer framework conditions and mutual understanding.
