Bosch Smart System: customise the riding modes in eBike Flow

Bosch Smart System (Purion 200, Intuvia 100, Kiox 300/500, LED Remote, System Controller)

The Smart System is the one Bosch generation where you can tune the modes yourself: eBike Flow lets you adjust support, maximum torque and dynamics per mode. Five minutes in the app, no dealer.

Step by step

  1. Switch the bike on and open eBike Flow; wait for the bike to connect.
  2. Tap Settings (gear) > your eBike > 'Riding modes' (older app versions: 'Ride modes').
  3. Select a mode, e.g. Tour+ or Turbo. Adjust the sliders 'Support', 'Max. torque' and 'Dynamics' (and 'Starting behaviour' on some motors) within the ranges Bosch allows.
  4. Save. The changes are written to the drive unit and apply immediately; the display shows the mode as before.
  5. Selecting modes while riding: + / − on the LED Remote or Mini Remote. Purion 200 and Intuvia 100 also use + / −.
  6. To go back to Bosch defaults, use 'Reset' in the same screen.
Tip: Lowering Support in Eco and raising it in Tour+ gives a bigger step between the two, which many riders find more useful than four almost-equal modes.

Can't find it?

If Riding modes is missing, update app and bike firmware; the feature came with 2023 firmware and only on Smart System drive units (BDU37xx/38xx). The number of modes and their names (Eco, Tour, Tour+, eMTB, Sport, Auto, Turbo) depend on the drive unit and manufacturer.

Frequently asked

Can I make Turbo stronger than factory?

You can adjust within the range Bosch allows; the maximum torque of the motor is a hard limit.

What is 'Auto' mode?

An adaptive mode on newer Smart System firmware that varies support with terrain and effort.

Will custom modes affect range?

Yes; higher support and torque use more energy. The app's range estimate updates as you ride.

Still stuck? Take a photo of the display and show it to a local e-bike workshop. Bring the bike's system name (e.g. Bosch Performance Line CX) and the exact code; that saves diagnostic time and money.
