Bosch E Bike Tuning Software

It has been installed a wrong software for the Line series (Performance Line / Performance Line CX) or the type of bike (Cruise / Speed, derailleur / gearbox in the hub). Upgradeand update the software to the correct product line / the correct bicycle type. E Bike Tuning for Bosch Active, Performance, CX and Classic, Panasonic, Brose, Impulse and Yamaha motors. Simply faster up to 50 km/h motorassisted. All motor assistance levels of your e bike are retained. The Sx2 Dongle causes no changes in the engine electronics. The software of the Bosch eBike systems can detect whether the pedelec has been tuned by means of a sensor while riding. It then switches to emergency mode. Consequence: an error code in the display indicates manipulation and support is reduced. The eBiker can restore the original riding settings by riding the pedelec for around 90 minutes.

Bosch 2020 Tuning

Bosch 2020 tuning products at a glance

Here you can find tuning tools which are compatible with the new Bosch 2020 E Bike drive systems - corresponding engines are often called 'Bosch Gen4'. The special feature of these drive systems is that they are equipped with a special anti-tuning software. This software is designed to use sensors to detect whether the E Bike has been tuned. If this is the case, a restricted mode is activated - this means that error code 504 appears in the display and the motor support is strongly reduced. As a rider, you can restore full functionality by riding for 90 minutes in the downgraded mode. But after that, the anti-tuning software becomes active again. From the third restoration onwards, the restricted mode can only be restored by a dealer using Bosch diagnostic tools. The purpose of this, of course, is to discourage riders from tuning or manipulating their E Bikes.

But fortunately there are already a considerable number of special tuning tools that can outsmart the Bosch tuning detection. That means that there are elegant solutions for the latest generation of Bosch engines as well, with which the annoying 25 km/h speed limit can easily be lifted. All tuning tools for Bosch 2020 drives that we offer in our shop have been tested on original Bosch Gen4 E Bikes. Please also note that Bosch Gen2 and Gen3 E Bikes from May 2019 onwards with software version 1.8.4.0 are also equipped with tuning detection.

Bosch 2020 motor tuning

The most important Bosch Gen4 drives are revisions of existing drive systems, namely Performance Line and Performance Line CX.

The new Bosch Performance Line 2020 drive is very dynamic and is primarily aimed at hobby sportsmen as well as commuters, trekkers and tourers. When the engine is switched off or at speeds above 25 km/h, hardly any pedal resistance should be felt. The drive unit 'Performance Cruise' has a torque of 65 Nm and is recently even equipped with an eMTB mode. With a support of up to 300% this drive can really impress.

The extremely powerful, robust Bosch Performance Line CX drives, on the other hand, have been specially designed for the requirements of e-mountainbikes. The Performance CX 2020 engine is much more compact than its predecessor and its weight has also been significantly reduced from 4 to only 2.9 kilograms. At the same time, the maximum degree of support has been increased from 300% to 340%, making steep climbs even easier to master. Again, there should be no pedal resistance at speeds above 25 km/h. The torque is 75 Nm.

Other interesting Bosch 2020 drives include 'Cargo Line Cruise' and 'Cargo Line Speed'. However, these were specially designed for e-cargobikes that have to transport heavy loads.

A few tips from our side:

  • Many tuning tools for the new Bosch Gen4 engines offer the option to set the level of maximum engine support to an individual value. However, some tuning manufacturers advise to set the maximum engine support to a maximum of 33-35 km/h (RedPed 2 and SpeedChip V3). With higher values it is possible that the anti-tuning software will recognize the tuning. Of course you can usually set higher values with the tuning tools, too - but you do this at your own risk. Therefore, we do not recommend optimizing above 35 km/h permanently. Consequently, simply do not drive faster than 35 km/h permanently with engine support!
  • You should always drive a few kilometres with the new Bosch Gen4 engines before you install a tuning module. Doing so should further reduce the risk of the tuning being detected.

  • Generally, we recommend being very careful with Bosch updates, even with older models. In fact, we do not recommend updates in general; there is no obligation to perform updates. It's not without reason that they say: 'Never change a winning team!'

Tuning tools for Bosch 2020 / Gen4 E-Bike drive systems

Here we have compiled the best tuning tools for Bosch 2020 Gen4 E Bike drive systems. First and foremost the most comprehensive tool RedPed with control via a free iOS or Android app. The SpeedChip, which can be connected to the PC via USB cable, also stands out as a solution with optional features. The VOLspeed can be controlled very extensively via the Bosch display. And with the SpeedBox there is now a real classic among the Bosch tuning tools available for Gen4 engines. A completely different approach: The current Badass Box for Bosch - the contactless alternative. Just as impressive is the sIMPLEk solution with the stick: A dongle with real speed on the display and many other features. Brand new is the PearTune 3 module, which simply removes the speed limit completely. Only a solution especially for Bosch software E Bike tuning is missing so far...

Tip: These tuning tools also work with 'old' Bosch engines (Gen 2 and Gen3) where the anti-tuning software has been installed as part of updates. The tools are therefore downward compatible. Please also note that Bosch Gen2 and Gen3 E Bikes from May 2019 onwards with software version 1.8.4.0 are also equipped with the tuning detection. But this also means for all those who own a Bosch Gen2 and Gen3 engine, that only the new E Bike tuning products for Bosch 2020 engines make sense.

In general: The tuning tools for Bosch 2020 are not only compatible with the brand new Gen4 engines, but also with the old Gen2 and Gen3 drives (Bosch Active Line & Performance Line). They only do not work with Bosch Classic Line drive systems. The tuning tools are not upwards compatible with subsequent firmwares.

Speedchip V3.0 for Bosch, configurable via Micro USB at the PC. Maximum support is individually adjustable from 27.5 to 35 km/h. Compatible with old Bosch E Bike drives and the very latest Bosch Gen4 engine generation (model year 2020).

Tuning Speedchip V3.0 for Bosch E Bikes

This is a classic tuning tool in its latest and so far best version - now also compatible with the most recent Bosch software (Gen4 / year 2020). If you own an E Bike with Bosch mid-mounted-engine and you want to finally use the full power of the drive system, the Speedchip V 3.0 is the right choice. This tuning tool removes the 25 km/h speed limitation, which allows you to ride much faster with full engine support (up to 35 km/h). And all this with correct speed- and kilometre-indication! Another advantage of the Speedchip is that it is equipped with a micro-USB interface and can be configured via PC. Thanks to the use of original connectors, the installation of the Speedchip is extremely simple. You can remove the chip at any time if you want to restore the E Bike´s original condition.

The most relevant innovation of the Speedchip V3.0: It is even compatible with the brand new Bosch Performance CX Gen 4 drive systems (model year 2020).

This tuning tool is a high-quality product Made in Germany. Before delivery, each Speedchip is tested on an E Bike for correct functionality.

Compatibility

The Tuning Speedchip V 3.0 is compatible with the following E Bikes with Bosch mid-mounted engines:

Active Line / Active Plus / Performance Line / Performance Line CX model year 2014-2020.

Important hints:

- The Tuning Speedchip V 3.0 has been successfully tested with all old Bosch software versions as well as the latest versions, e.g. for Purion displays+CX Gen4 (board computer: 1.4.0.0., Drive-Unit: 1.0.2.0, Power-Pack: 1.9.1.0).

- On the Gen4 engine generation with FW 1.0.2.0 the Tuning Speedchip V 3.0 was tested for 4000 km without detection. The manufacturer recommends the Speedchip V3 also for all older models, on which the anti-tuning software has been installed. It is not recommended to use any old tunings on these models, where the tuning tools halve, third or quarter the transmitted values and thus the maximum speed increases to more than 50 km/h.

- You should not carry out any future updates, because this could lead to a situation where the tuning no longer works - or only works to a limited extent.

Please note: The SpeedChip hardware is identical for both Bosch engine generations (Gen3 and Gen4), only the firmware must be adapted for the different drive systems via PC.

Special Tools:

Important! You need special tools to install the SpeedChip module:

Bosch Gen3 & Gen4 engines: Crank Remover.

Software:

Speedchip for Bosch - New Firmware version

Maximum speed now also adjustable via the Display:

With the new Speedchip firmware for Bosch E Bikes you can set the maximum speed via the display of your Bosch E Bike (so you don't have to connect the Speedchip to your PC anymore). Proceed as follows: -Activate the Speedchip and press the minus button for 5 seconds. Then the display shows the maximum speed (default 50 km/h). -Use the plus and minus buttons to set the desired value. Then wait for approx. 5 seconds until 0 km/h is displayed. Adjustment is now completed and saved! Please note: This function is only available within 5 seconds after Speedchip activation, after that it will be locked.

The Speedchip is now also compatible with Cobi.Bike:

Cobi Bike is an innovative system in which the Bosch E Bike is connected to a smartphone and thus becomes a real smart bike (route tracking, fitness data, navigation, weather, alarm system, etc.). Now the support of the Speedchip has been made compatible with Cobi.Bike. The activation is shown in the submenu 'remaining km'. Attention: Activation via 'Walk' is not possible because Cobi.Bike uses this key as a bell. Please set an individual +/- combination via the PC tool to activate the Speedchip (for example ++-+).
