Bosch Performance Line CX 5th generation engine
The 5th generation motor offers 85 Nm and a peak power of 600 W. Thanks to the magnesium housing, it is lighter (2.8 kg) and quieter. The new mounting system makes installation easier. Improved sensors measure rider inputs more accurately, ensuring a more natural power transfer. The motor has hill-start and walk assist for added comfort. Lower weight improves maneuverability and component durability. Auto mode automatically adjusts terrain assistance. Compatibility with Bosch smart systems allows tracking of ride details, making planning and the ride itself easier.
Bosch PowerTube 800
Bosch PowerTube 600 and 800 offer higher capacity and lower weight. The PowerTube 800 weighs 3.9 kg, 400 g less than previous 750 Wh models, while providing a longer range. The new batteries are more compact, improving the handling of the electric bikes. In addition, they are made with the environment in mind, using recycled materials and renewable energy.
Both batteries - the 600 Wh and 800 Wh - have the same length of 435 mm, which is almost 5 cm less than the 750 Wh version (484 mm). This shorter design is made possible by the use of advanced 21700 cells and a modified cross-section. The advantage of the same length is compatibility with a single bracket, meaning that if the frame has sufficient space for an 800 Wh battery, a 600 Wh model can also be used. This gives greater flexibility in choosing battery capacity.
