If you’re not into e-bike you probably ask yourself, that Bosch smart e-bike system, what is it? Well, we’re going to explain what this system does and what components are used that made the system.
Bosch Performance Line CX drive unit
The main component of the Bosch smart e-bike system is the motor. The German manufacturer has multiple e-bike drive units in its portfolio. The Performance Line CX drive unit has a torque of 85Nm strong enough on a trekking bike or eMTB. The motor enables rapid acceleration but also supports high cadence. Designed for sporty use, the e-MTB mode offers you control and intuitive handling, as you need to switch less between the different riding modes.
But what is so smart about this drive unit? The Bosch Performance Line CX drive unit is fully connected to the smart e-bike system. With the new eBike Flow app (iOS and Android) you can control the settings of the motor.
Bosch PowerTube 750
Together with the new drive unit, Bosch introduced also a new battery. The PowerTube 750 is the biggest battery yet on the market for the Bosch smart e-bike system. With the same dimensions of the smaller PowerTubes, there is 20% more capacity available. Thanks to the high safety standards the reliability of the Bosch batteries is very good. And if there is a problem the support is as you may expect.
Kiox 300 display
The new Bosch Kiox 300 display is smaller than the current Kiox display but has more features onboard. It features a color display and can be visible at night due to the backlit LCD screen. The Kiox unit can be updated wirelessly by the owner, so there is now no need to visit the dealer for basic firmware updates. Last but not least the Kiox 300 display holder is mounted centrally on the handlebars.
LED remote
With the Bosch LED remote you can control the Kiox 300 Display. All important information can be captured quickly and easily thanks to the LED remote. Thanks to the ergonomic ‘L’ design, the LED remote can be attached to the handlebar so that you can reach and operate all buttons perfectly with your thumb. The long-life rechargeable battery of the LED remote means that you can rely on the control center on every single e-bike ride.
Bosch eBike Flow app
Build for iOS and Android, the Bosch eBike Flow app turns your e-bike ride into a personalized experience! Use the e-bike Flow app to download new features and updates for components such as the battery or motor and send them to your e-bike via Bluetooth.
Track your ride and fitness data as soon as you get started. If desired, the Activity Tracking for iPhone users can also sync all data automatically with Apple Health. When you take a break, the recording stops automatically.
Also important are the over-the-air updates that can be downloaded to your e-bike Bosch components. The Bosch eBike Flow app is set to be released for autumn 2021. So any time soon, you can find the app in the Google Play and Apple App Store.
