Sporty design
The box of the Performance Line CX Race is coated with a high-quality graphite gray paint and is distinguished from other drive units by its logo and bright colors. The slim design and the special surface finish underline the robust, sporty and strong character of the drive unit.
Performance Line CX Race Limited Edition
Power, performance and speed: with the Performance Line CX Race Limited Edition, we offer ambitious athletes and professionals the right drive unit to best tackle eMTB racing. This drive unit, produced in limited numbers, is only installed on exclusive eMTB models from selected manufacturers.

Designed to win races
The impressive racing character of the Performance Line CX Race is ideal for the toughest eMTB racing in the world. This drive unit surprises you on the steepest and most technically demanding uphill and downhill trails, as well as on long stages with many meters of altitude difference. In combination with the exclusive Race mode, it allows direct acceleration out of corners, as well as acceleration and driving as fast as possible. The Performance Line CX Race is the perfect choice for professional eMTB athletes and ambitious sportsmen.

Exclusive Race mode
The Race mode has been specially developed for use in eMTB racing and is available exclusively for the Performance Line CX Race. This riding mode will quickly take you to maximum speed and supports you with all its power up to maximum speed, thus making you gain decisive seconds in the fight for the best time. The Extended Boost, already known in the eMTB mode, is also available in the Race mode, but with an even greater boost. It is optimal for quickly overcoming large boulders and complex root passages. Precise driving technique is required to control the energy response and power of the Race mode. It was developed based on the experience of successful eBiking athletes.

85 Nm of powerful acceleration
The maximum torque of the Performance Line CX Race, which reaches 85 Newton meters, allows rapid acceleration from stationary, after extremely demanding sections and obstacles, tight corners or hairpin bends. Pedaling power is instantly converted into thrust. Even at high pedaling rates, above 120 rpm, the powerful motor provides effective support. Sports races on long stages and fast sprints are possible: optimal conditions for obtaining the best times on challenging routes.

Low weight and compact structure
The Performance Line CX Race weighs only 2,75 kg. This makes it the lightest of all Bosch drive units. Its low weight helps to reduce the overall weight of the eBike: ideal for greater control uphill and downhill, to have fun with jumps and to more easily overcome the transport and pushing steps. The integration into a sporty and slim frame geometry optimizes handling and ensures agile handling.

Hill Hold on athletic courses
The Hill Hold function of intelligent walking assistance prevents the eBike from unintentionally rolling back when pushing on extremely steep slopes and rough passages. During the strenuous climb on foot, you can push your eMTB much easier and progress faster. In extremely tight and steep turns, you can use Hill Hold to move the eMTB in a controlled way, for example.
