bikespeed-key
Active/Performance with plugable Cable set
for all Bosch Active- and Performance-Line Engines from year 201 to 2020
Product description
bikespeed-key is a simple and compact kit consisting of a tuning-chip and a cable
set to bypass the speed limit of 25km/h in Bosch Pedelec engines.
The chip bisects the speedometer from a velocity of about 20km/h. This way, the
scope of the support provided by the engine is enhanced to a maximum of
50km/h.
After installing 1) the cable set, which can simply be put between engine and
speed sensor, the chip can be plugged in and out at any time (even while riding).
Product Liability / Liability Exclusion
We were not able to figure out whether running the bikespeed-key with the
cable installed but without a chip plugged in is permitted on public roads. That is
why we expressly point out that the mere installation of the interface may
already be an offence against (german) road traffic regulations, driving without
insurance, §6 obligatory-insurance law respectively! We therefore recommend
using a modified bicycle on private property only. Running the bikespeed-key in
public traffic is expressly prohibited by road traffic regulations!
Installing and running the bikespeed-key is done in personal responsibility;
liabilities for damages or subsequent damages as well as legal consequences for
bikespeed are excluded in every case.
Please inquire about legal consequences that may result for you from installing
the system before you use it.

We expressly point out that using the bikespeed-key leads to a loss of warranty
by the manufacturer. Furthermore there are no claims to product liability for
your pedelec/e-bike viable for the manufacturer and bikespeed.
bikespeed especially cannot guarantee that brakes, frames, running gears, tires
etc. are designed for the use of the tuning-component.
Attention: Only plug the bikespeed-key into the connection cable provided.
Never plug it into a SB-slot (e.g. on your PC)!
Installation:
Attention: - Remove the battery before working on your bicycle!
- the installation may only be conducted by an expert!
- All information without guarantee!
To install the bikespeed-key with plug-in cable set the gravel deflector of your
engine has to be dismantled. In order to do this you have to remove the treadle
on the opposite side of the chain guide. Please keep to our pictured instructions
for this procedure.
