Bosch has a long history of innovation and it's important to our values that all bike brands have access to create exciting, functional and fun electric bikes. To ensure all interested frame builders and boutique bike brands have guidance and support, it is imperative to have a distributor partner to help make this a reality. In North America, we partnered with Vapor Propulsion Labs to ensure all interested frame builders and bike brands have access to Bosch eBike Systems - including motor, battery and computers. More importantly, through guidance and support during development as well as sharing access to the industry leading post-sales support of the Bosch Service and Warranty Teams. 

Bosch eBike systems (motor, battery, and computer) are distributed by Vapor Propulsion Labs. The VPL Team has the experience and engineering guidance to help you through the build-out process and BOM (bill of materials) selection in order to get your electric bike project started. Please follow these steps if interested in learning more.
