Minimalist, robust control unit

Reduced to the essentials, the System Controller is the control unit for eBikes with the smart system. The deliberately limited number of functions and information facilitates a quick overview and ensures there are no distractions while riding. The System Controller is seamlessly integrated into the top tube - this gives the already robust companion additional protection, is hardly noticeable and is perfect for sporty tours and design-oriented eBike fans.

Built into the top tube

The System Controller is barely noticeable, made of sturdy material and protected from knocks and scratches.

Two buttons

With just two buttons you can control the most important functions of your eBike: Turn your eBike on or off and change the riding mode.

Quick overview

Register important information quickly: The functions of the System Controller are reduced to the essentials. The different colours of the riding mode LED each represent a different riding mode. You can also check the charge status of your battery via the LEDs. If they all light up blue, the battery charge level is 100 percent. If an LED turns white, it means the charge level has decreased by ten percent.

Smart control unit

Benefit from connected riding with the smart system: As part of the new system generation, the System Controller is the connecting element between your eBike and the eBike Flow app. It serves as an interface for transferring software updates from the eBike Flow app via Bluetooth to your eBike and is an alternative to the LED Remote. The System Controller also lets you use smart functions like eBike Lock.

Cleaner look

Enjoy the understated design of your control unit: Since the System Controller is permanently installed in the frame of the eBike, it is barely noticeable at first glance. In addition, its hard material surface makes it particularly robust. The clean bike look is maintained and you have a strong companion on trails that scratches and impacts can't harm. Its battery is durable and can be replaced in an environmentally responsible way.

Good operability

Control the most important functions of your eBike with just two buttons. These let you turn your eBike on or off and change the riding mode. The buttons are arranged and designed so that you don't need to take your eyes off the track while riding. The soft-touch surface prevents slipping and enables intuitive, error-free operation.

A perfect addition: Mini Remote

Use the Mini Remote to operate your control unit even more safely and comfortably: The Mini Remote can be easily retrofitted to the System Controller and mounted by you independently on the handlebar. Now you never need to take your hand off the handlebars while riding and have three more buttons that expand the range of functions. Once the Mini Remote is in place, you can also control a display or use your smartphone as a display.

Optimal readability

Always recognise immediately which riding mode is currently in use and how much battery energy is still available: The integrated ambient light sensor automatically adjusts the brightness of the LEDs to the current lighting conditions. This way, you can easily read the LED signals even in direct sunlight and won't be dazzled in the dark thanks to dimmed LEDs.

The smart system offers a choice of different riding modes, these adapt the support from the eBike motor according to application and rider type.

Maximum support for eCargo bikes with up to 400% of your own pedal power and optimum start-up, even when carrying a full load.

All the available riding modes can be flexibly combined on eBikes with the smart system. Specialist dealers can activate up to four modes (in addition to Off mode) and thus adapt them perfectly them to the eBikers (unless modifications have been excluded by the bicycle manufacturer). With the help of the individual riding modes, you can configure the modes Eco, Tour, Sport and Turbo to your needs via the eBike Flow app. You can set the support, dynamics, torque and maximum speed.

Customise your riding modes

You can fine-tune the Race, Cargo, Turbo, Auto, eMTB, Sport, Tour+, Tour and Eco riding modes to give you more support or to use less power.

Here's how it works

 

 

 

 

eBike Lock with the smart system

Activating the eBike Lock function via the eBike Flow app lets you use your smartphone as a digital key. Because motor support can only be activated with your smartphone and the Bluetooth connection, your eBike holds no attraction for thieves.

New Even better protected with eBike Alarm

The eBike Alarm is the next step for even more security for your eBike. Made possible by the ConnectModule and in interaction with eBike Lock, it expands the locking of the drive unit with a comprehensive alarm function. When you switch off your eBike, the eBike Alarm is automatically activated and deactivated when you switch it back on. This means your eBike is optimally protected at all times - without you having to do anything.

The eBike Flow app connects you to your eBike – and your eBike to the digital world. Use the app to control all functions of the smart system, which connects the drive unit, battery and control unit. It allows you to customise the eBike exactly to your preferences, enhance it and keep it up to date: You can simply download new features and services, installing updates for your eBike via Bluetooth. This keeps your eBike up to date and continuously upgraded with new features, allowing you to take your riding enjoyment to ever higher levels.

Mini Remote

Mini Remote is the ideal supplement to the System Controller

The Mini Remote supplements the System Controller as an additional operating panel, extending the range of functions and enabling safe operation. It is connected to the System Controller via Bluetooth and can be flexibly mounted on the handlebar. The buttons near the thumb mean you can keep your hands on the handlebars at all times. More keys offer more functions: The Mini Remote gives you practical features like the smart Walk Assistance function and you can turn your eBike light on or off. 

At a glance

Retrofittable

The Mini Remote can be quickly retrofitted and is connected to the System Controller via Bluetooth.

 

 

Three keys, more functions

The keys of the Mini Remote have double assignments: For riding mode, the light function and smart Walk Assistance and for controlling a display.

Full flexibility

The Mini Remote works with or without display. Operate the ride screen of the eBike Flow app or your display screens.

Intuitive operation

Close and easy for your thumb to operate with a high-grip, soft touch surface: The keys are marked with icons and can be used intuitively.

Further details

A perfect addition

Retrofit the Mini Remote as a practical addition to the System Controller, if the two devices were not installed together by the manufacturer. You can easily mount the Mini Remote on the handlebar yourself and pair it with the System Controller via Bluetooth - alternatively you can contact your dealer. The smart ergonomics ensure intuitive handling. For example, you can change the riding mode without taking your hand off the handlebars and thus ride even more safely - whether on the trail or in the city.

Wireless design

Avoid cables that detract from the clean look of the eBike: The Mini Remote is connected to the System Controller via Bluetooth and therefore does not require a cable connection. The fact that the large range of functions is controlled with just three buttons underlines the minimalist design.

Simple operation

Find the right function quickly using the icons on the easy-grip, pleasant-feeling keys. Each key is assigned two functions. You can choose between them with a long or short keystroke, which facilitates intuitive operation.

New Hill Hold

The Hill Hold function prevents your eBike from rolling back unintentionally on a steep slope or on steps. It complements smart walk assistance. If you intentionally or accidentally release the minus button of the Mini Remote or the LED Remote while pushing, it automatically engages: Hill Hold prevents your eBike from rolling back for about ten seconds – without you having to apply the brake. This means, for example, when planning your eMTB tour, you don't have to worry about having to push your eBike.

FAQ & more

The five charge level LEDs indicate the charge level. An ice-blue bar corresponds to approx. 20%, a white bar approx. 10%. In addition, below 30% the display turns orange and below 10% it turns red. Red flashing at 0% indicates that motor support is no longer available, but that there is still reserve power for light.
