If you find yourself on the hunt for an eBike or cargo bike, the name Bosch motor systems likely rings a bell. Renowned for their robust reliability and virtually maintenance-free operation, these powerful motors have earned a well-deserved popularity. With pedal assistance reaching up to 20 mph and 28 mph on their speed models, Bosch provides versatile options to cater to almost every application. The mid-mounted motor, seamlessly integrated into the crank, not only ensures excellent ground clearance and a low center of gravity but also facilitates direct force transfer to the back wheel through a chain or belt. All of our models are pedal-assist providing a riding experience that closely mimics that of a traditional bike.
Bosch motors boast an advanced 32-bit processor and sensors for power, pedal rate, and speed. Operating at a remarkable 1,000 sensor measurements per second, these motors showcase impeccable coordination, resulting in a ride that’s not only smooth but also highly efficient. As power increases, so does the torque, facilitating swift acceleration and making conquering diverse terrains a breeze. While the motor assistance tops out at 20 mph, the Performance Speed motor on our HS (High Speed) models can elevate your ride to an impressive 28 mph. For enhanced efficiency, we recommend pairing these motors with a derailleur or Rohloff gear system. Elevate your biking experience with the cutting-edge performance of Bosch motors.
