Bosch offers more than one way to see speed, battery and riding mode — from minimalist bar-mounted remotes to full-colour Kiox displays and phone-based SmartphoneGrip setups. The right choice depends on how much data you want at a glance and how you ride.
Current display families
Kiox 300 / Kiox 500
Colour displays for riders who want rich ride data — battery, assistance level, navigation prompts and ABS mode indicators on compatible bikes. Kiox 500 adds more screen space for maps and statistics. Common on eMTB and premium tourers.
Purion 200
Compact and unobtrusive — a neat solution for urban and trekking bikes where a clean handlebar matters. Shows essentials without dominating the cockpit.
LED Remote / System Controller
Minimal control pod for changing support levels and walk assist. Often paired with a separate display or SmartphoneGrip rather than used alone on data-rich builds.
SmartphoneGrip + Flow
Uses your phone as the primary screen via the eBike Flow app — navigation, custom modes and security features in one place. Popular on agile urban and gravel builds.
What you see on the bar
On a typical Kiox setup you will see support level, remaining range, speed and system warnings — including ABS status on equipped bikes. The display talks to the smart system drive unit and battery so range estimates reflect how you actually ride.
Purion keeps the same information hierarchy in a smaller package — ideal if you rarely need maps on the bar. With SmartphoneGrip, Flow becomes your dashboard — great for riders who already mount a phone for navigation. You still get a bar-mounted remote for mode changes when gloves are on and the trail is bumpy.
Which display suits your riding?
- City commute — Purion or compact remote; optionally SmartphoneGrip if you live by phone maps
- Touring & trekking — Kiox 300 or Purion depending on how much detail you want on long days
- eMTB & trail — Kiox 500 for readability at speed; check ABS mode visibility if you run Bosch eBike ABS
- Cargo & family — clear, simple readouts matter when you are watching traffic and children — Purion or Kiox depending on spec
Manufacturers spec displays to match each bike’s purpose. On a Riese & Müller test ride we will show you exactly what is fitted to the models you are comparing — and how it pairs with the drive unit you have shortlisted.
