Convert your Catrike into an electric-assist trike with the Bosch Active Line Plus Smart System — installed by a certified Bosch technician at Laid Back Cycles.

This system cannot be self-installed. Installation is required at our shop or included when purchasing a new compatible Catrike from us.


Why Riders Choose the Bosch Smart System

The Catrike eKIT features Bosch's premium mid-drive technology:

• Bosch Active Line Plus motor (Class 1)
• Up to 270% pedal assist
• 50Nm torque with multi-sensor technology
• Smooth, natural ride feel
• 400Wh Bosch PowerPack battery — up to 62 miles of range
• Bosch Purion display, easy to read in sunlight
• eBike Flow App integration
• Over-the-air updates
• UL2849 certified

This is not a generic hub motor conversion.
It's the gold standard in electric assist systems.


What Makes It a “Smart System”

Every part of the Catrike eKIT — motor, battery, display, lights, and app — is built to work together as one connected Bosch Smart System. That connection unlocks real benefits you don't get from an ordinary motor kit:

eBike Flow app — personalize your assist modes, tune the ride feel, and see live stats (range, speed, battery, trip data) right from your phone.
Over-the-air updates — your trike gets better over time; new features and improvements arrive wirelessly, no shop visit needed.
Built-in anti-theft & lock — arm the system from your phone so the motor won't assist an unauthorized rider.
Smart diagnostics — the system monitors its own health and flags service needs early, making support faster and easier.
One integrated battery — the same PowerPack that drives the motor also powers your lights, so there's nothing extra to charge.


Integrated Lights Included

The eKIT comes with a premium SUPERNOVA lighting set — a MINI 3 headlight and TL3 taillight — wired directly into the eKIT battery.

• Always-ready visibility, day or night
• Powered by the trike's main battery — no separate batteries to charge or replace
• Clean, factory-integrated install for safer riding and better road presence


Ride Farther. Climb Easier. Stay Independent.

For many riders, hills and fatigue limit how far they can ride.

The Bosch Smart System restores confidence:

• Maintain pace with stronger riders
• Extend your touring range up to 62 miles
• Reduce strain on knees and hips
• Ride longer without exhaustion

It feels like your legs — only stronger.
