Promising electric bicycle results Bosch 2020 batteries
Electric bicycle: Bosch 2020 motors and batteries are promising.
Bosch, one of the leading manufacturers of electric bicycle engines and batteries, has completely revised its engine torque battery to the weight and power of the key gains.
A 25% lighter electric motor and a battery that gains 20% of capacity, these are significant improvements in the field of electric bicycle (VAE). Good news that we owe to Bosch. With German manufacturers, Shimano and Yamaha are one of the major suppliers of VAE engines and batteries. And, according to unofficial but well-documented information, future Bosch engines and batteries for 2020 have been extensively reviewed.
The Lemarcheduvelo website has published technical details accompanied by several photos. Regarding the Performance CX engine, first we find that it was lit up to 2.9kg versus 4kg for the previous model. More than a kilo of winning is great in cycling! The other major development is the disappearance of the small sprocket that lets out a support to get a classic tray. Knowing that Bosch tools were originally designed to increase the pedaling torque, we can deduce that the manufacturer has found a way to increase the torque of the engine itself. The ability to mount a conventional platform will also provide greater flexibility for factory configurations and subsequent updates.

Bosch PowerTube 600 Wh Battery
Engine support has also been modified, which should facilitate its integration and leave more options for frame makers depending on the type of pedal they want to develop. The second major innovation is the Bosch PowerTube battery, whose capacity increases from 500 to 600 Wh. Nothing revolutionary in this part, Bosch is pleased to follow the trend already taken by other manufacturers of electric bicycle batteries.
The bad news for manufacturers and consumers is that the battery would exceed 67 millimeters. This means that the existing model frames will need to be redesigned, and customers with a Bosch PowerTube 500 Wh battery will not be able to replace it with a 600 Wh battery. Note that all this information should be taken into account because Bosch has not yet communicated this subject.
