The advantages of the Bosch eBike system
Developed for limitless freedom: eBikes with components from Bosch eBike Systems offer technical quality of the highest order – and perform as a perfectly coordinated team. The smart system by Bosch eBike Systems – consisting of eBike Flow app, control unit, display, battery and drive unit – ensures an individual eBike experience. The new system generation combines technologically high-quality eBike components with digital functions that raise your everyday and leisure riding fun to the next level.
Drive unit
The drive to experience a new kind of mobility
Around 90% of all eBikes have a mid-drive motor. Most eBike riders have good reason to choose this concept.
The most advanced drive technology is particularly notable for the natural riding sensation it offers, thanks to the direct transmission of power to the chain. Compared to front or rear wheel motors, the mid-drive motor also scores highly for its balanced weight distribution and center of gravity. At the same time, the mid-drive motor offers good drive control, is compatible with all gear shifting systems and uses less energy due to a higher degree of efficiency. Another advantage of the mid-drive motor is the compact construction and low weight. Seamless integration in the frame design permits greater ground clearance and a lower Q factor.
The secret behind the natural riding sensation is innovative Bosch technology: The multi-sensor concept ensures perfectly coordinated motor support. The sensors measure the torque, speed and acceleration more than 1,000 times per second, ensuring perfect interaction between rider and eBike. The technology not only ensures riding fun, but also the necessary level of safety. If the legal maximum speed is exceeded, the motor support will switch off automatically. Depending on the product line, Bosch mid-drive motors are available in two variants: with support up to 20 mph or 28 mph.
Bosch displays
Full support, even on the handlebar
The ideal companion for every type of rider. Bosch has various computers and smartphone solutions in its portfolio, thus ensuring the right display for every possible need and situation.
Purion gives eBike riders a swift overview that limits all information to the essentials. The Intuvia is an easy-to-operate control center. With its robust design and great connectivity, Kiox offers all the functions that ambitious sporty riders could need and now also guides them to their destination. Thanks to the touch function, the Nyon computer can be operated intuitively, while at the same time supporting eBike riders as a fitness trainer and guide when they explore unfamiliar locations.
The smart system, the new system generation from Bosch eBike Systems, is fully connected and always up-to-date thanks to regular updates over-the-air. The smart displays LED Remote and Kiox 300 connect you to your own eBike via the Flow app to give you a Connected Biking experience.
Batteries
The most modern eBike power sources on the market
Bosch batteries are an efficient energy provider with lasting power – and are among the most modern eBike batteries on the market. They combine impressive mileage, a long service life and low weight with an ergonomic design and simple handling. The high-quality lithium-ion batteries are equipped with a battery management system, which recognizes potential sources of error and protects the battery cells from overload.
Apps & portal
How Connected Biking works
Whether for navigation, route planning or fitness: The smart connectivity of your eBike with apps and the online portal makes your riding experience even more unique. You can access numerous functions at all times – and are always connected to the digital world, even when you're on the move.
Riding modes
The smart system offers a choice of different riding modes, these adapt the support from the eBike motor according to application and rider type.
*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 eBike riders (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 customize your riding mode on speed eBikes.
