Cargo Line – the smart system

The smart alternative to the car

The Cargo Line is now also part of the smart system. You benefit from advantages such as the continuous updating of the components via over-the-air updates or the individualization of the riding modes via the eBike Flow app. The support of Cargo Line is as strong as usual: with its help, you can move heavy loads up even steep inclines.

At a glance

Strong Cargo mode

Cargo mode is designed for the special requirements of eCargo bikes. It delivers maximum power – with 400% of your own power.

 

Safe and comfortable handling

Auto mode automatically adjusts the assistance while riding. When braking, the ABS brings you more safely to a halt.

Powerful 85 Nm

Up to 85 Nm drive your eCargo bike, so you can move heavy loads and climb hills effortlessly.

Smart Walk Assist and Hill Hold

The Walk Assist and the automatic rollback protection help to keep control even when pushing.

More details

Strong support

Transport your loads effortlessly to their destination: Whether you’re riding slowly on a steep incline or pedaling on flat ground, the 85 Nm of torque supports you powerfully and naturally thanks to the optimally tuned transmission concept.

Safe riding sensation

Master even difficult situations with confidence: The multi-sensor concept and sophisticated software enable consistent acceleration and give you a smooth, safe riding experience. The new Auto mode detects the characteristics of the environment and adjusts the level of support accordingly. You don’t have to switch between riding modes and can concentrate on the road.

Strong Cargo mode

With the Cargo mode specially designed for the Cargo Line you get the maximum support out of your eBike – 400% of your own power. In addition, the Cargo mode optimizes start-up behavior: Despite the high level of support and torque, your eCargo bike starts smoothly and pleasantly. Do you prefer a different dynamic or a different torque? In the eBike Flow app, you can adjust the Cargo mode to your needs with the slider.

ABS Cargo

eCargo bikes place enormous demands on the brake system. The Bosch eBike ABS provides faster, safer, and more accurate braking, even when fully loaded. This way you protect yourself, your load and other road users.

Bosch eBike ABS is only available in the following countries: all countries of the European Union, United Kingdom, Switzerland and Norway.

 

Smart Walk Assist

The Cargo Line Walk Assist helps you push your eCargo bike. Press and hold the minus key to activate Walk Assist. As soon as you push your eCargo bike, the motor support starts. In addition, the integrated Hill Hold function automatically prevents uncontrolled rolling back or downhill. You’re safe at all times, even on steep climbs, and start effortlessly.

Easy handling

Save battery energy and increase your range: If you exceed 20 mph during a ride, the electric motor and transmission automatically decouple – the eBike then rides very smoothly thanks to minimal pedaling resistance. Because the Cargo Line is also compatible with short pedal cranks, it helps prevent grounding, providing even more safety.

Effective technology

Keep a cool eBike: even under heavy load or heat, the Cargo Line effectively dissipates motor heat with its cooling fins. This way, your drive unit won’t overheat and you can go full throttle, even on long rides in the summer. The small dimensions of the Cargo Line and its magnesium casing reduce the weight of the drive unit to just 6.4 pounds. So your eBike is lighter, and you can control it even better.

Customize your riding modes

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

How it works

 

 

 

 

eBike Lock with the smart system
