The minute your feet touch the pedals, you feel the unique combination of performance and comfort. From urban riding to backroad adventures- The Current helps you connect all of the points on your riding circuit. The eBike inspires our mobility behavior and is one of the most sustainable and healthiest means of transportation of our time. For over a decade, Bosch eBike Systems has been offering innovative eBike drive systems of outstanding performance and quality.
We work closely with the world’s leading motor makers to choose the right e-bike motor for the right type of bike – look for Bosch, Shimano or Mahle – featuring either hub-drive or mid-drive. Not only does riding an electric bike feel natural, you also feel energized. This is just like riding a bicycle, only even better – with an electric-bike you have a battery-powered motor to assist you along the way. You can ride further, you can travel faster, you can enjoy your journeys more – simply set the motor to enhance your pedal-power, and it’ll help you with every pedal of every ride.
And with little perceptible drag, you can ride naturally without engaging the motor. As the momentum of the e-bike trend continues, advancements in motor technology is the obvious next step. And with more and more road and mountain bikes becoming “electrified,” brands are giant ROAD BIKES looking to add power without adding a bunch of weight or taking up a ton of space on the frame. This is especially important for full-suspension mountain bikes because smaller motors leave more room for suspension, better tire clearance, and fewer geometry compromises.
There are individuals who claim to have lost considerable amounts of weight by using an electric bike. A recent prospective cohort study however found that people using e-bikes have a higher BMI than those using conventional bikes. By making the biking terrain less of an issue, people who would not otherwise consider biking can use the electric assistance when needed and otherwise pedal as they are able.
Our in-house ebike experts share which accessories help them live their best bike lives. From concept to finished product, all of our ebikes are designed by the Rad Lab, our in-house team of designers and engineers.
