Bosch Introduces Scalable Digital Platform to Power Innovation and Connectivity in the Global eBike Industry

A central component of the digital ecosystem around the eBike: the Connected Biking platform

(IN BRIEF) Bosch eBike Systems has launched the Connected Biking platform, a digital ecosystem designed to enable partners across the cycling, mobility, and service industries to develop and operate connected eBike services. By leveraging data collected through the ConnectModule, the platform provides insights into the full lifecycle of eBikes, allowing manufacturers, dealers, and service providers to improve product development, optimize operations, and introduce new digital offerings. With standardized interfaces and Cloud APIs, partners can seamlessly integrate their services into the eBike Flow app, reaching a growing user base. The platform also unlocks new opportunities for fleet operators, leasing companies, and insurers by enabling real-time monitoring, enhanced asset management, and improved risk assessment. Early adopters, including komoot and several mobility solution providers, are already utilizing the system. With strong security measures and compliance with European data protection standards, Bosch positions the Connected Biking platform as a scalable and secure digital foundation for the future of eBike mobility.

(PRESS RELEASE) STUTTGART / REUTLINGEN, 24-Mar-2026 — /EuropaWire/ — Bosch eBike Systems is advancing the digital transformation of cycling with the introduction of its Connected Biking platform, a comprehensive ecosystem designed to enable partners to create, deploy, and scale their own digital services. The platform opens up new business opportunities across the cycling and mobility sectors, providing a shared digital foundation for manufacturers, dealers, service providers, and mobility companies to innovate and expand their offerings.

At the heart of the platform is the connected eBike, powered by Bosch’s ConnectModule, which continuously captures key data such as system status, configuration, usage patterns, and service history. This continuous flow of information offers a complete view of the eBike lifecycle—from delivery and daily use to servicing and eventual resale—allowing partners to develop smarter, data-driven solutions. Bosch supports this integration through standardized interfaces and Cloud APIs, enabling seamless connectivity between partner applications and the eBike Flow app.

Claus Fleischer, CEO of Bosch eBike Systems, emphasized the platform’s growing importance within the eBike ecosystem, highlighting how early partners are already leveraging it to shape the future of connected mobility. By lowering development barriers and reducing investment requirements, the Connected Biking platform is designed to accelerate innovation and encourage widespread adoption among industry stakeholders.

The platform delivers significant value to eBike manufacturers, who gain detailed insights into how their products are used in real-world conditions. This data enables more targeted product development, optimized features, and improved operational processes. Manufacturers can also create their own digital services, including apps and subscription models, while integrating branded content directly into the eBike Flow app.

Specialist dealers benefit from enhanced visibility and control over rental and test fleets, with real-time tracking improving operational efficiency and theft prevention. Meanwhile, app and service providers can integrate their solutions directly into Bosch’s ecosystem, reaching a broad and active user base. Partners such as komoot have already connected their services, demonstrating the platform’s potential to create a unified digital experience for riders.

Beyond the traditional cycling industry, the Connected Biking platform introduces new possibilities for fleet operators, leasing companies, and insurance providers. Fleet operators can monitor location, battery status, and usage in real time, enabling proactive maintenance and minimizing downtime. Leasing providers gain transparency over asset condition and service history, supporting more accurate valuations and efficient remarketing. Insurance companies can utilize GPS tracking, alarm systems, and digital reporting tools to reduce theft risks and streamline claims processing.

A wide range of partners—including Papin, Tilia, allride (AMAG Group), Connected Cycle, Friiway, Joyride, OKGO, and Velo de Ville—are already using the platform to deliver solutions for fleet management, subscription services, and rental operations, benefiting from a unified interface that eliminates the need for independent system development.

Bosch eBike Systems has placed strong emphasis on security and data protection within the platform. Advanced encryption technologies and a robust system architecture ensure that each eBike is individually protected, while all data is stored on European servers in compliance with strict data protection regulations. Over-the-air updates further ensure that security standards remain current, with users retaining control over their personal data.

Gregor Dasbach, Head of Digital Business at Bosch eBike Systems, highlighted the platform’s role in creating mutual value for both partners and customers. By simplifying the development of digital services and enabling faster implementation, the Connected Biking platform is positioned as a key driver of innovation in the eBike industry.

As the ecosystem continues to expand, Bosch’s Connected Biking platform is establishing itself as the digital backbone of the eBike sector, supporting the growth of connected mobility solutions and shaping the future of how people interact with eBikes in everyday life.
