German multinational engineering and technology company Bosch produces a lot of products you probably interact with on a regular basis. While we’re more used to appliances and tools like the Bosch Mini Chainsaw, they’ve also built batteries and motors for eBikes like the BMW x El Solitario Concept. Bosch is finally putting their decades of experience to use on a product of their own with the Bosch eBike Systems Design Vision Concept you see here. The carbon fiber frame of the concept eBike incorporates a number of Bosch components like a Performance Line CX motor adjacent to the bottom bracket, a removable PowerTube 625 lithium-ion battery in the down tube and an eBike ABS braking module hidden behind the front cargo rack. That front cargo rack also has an integrated always-on daytime LED headlight, and there’s a frame-integrated rear tail light that are both powered by the main battery. The Urban Sports Cruiser also includes a built-in Nyon on-board computer giving the bike a little cockpit. Which brings us to the fighter jet / mech robot style design that is as angular and clean as it is simple and understated.
