How eBikes work: Mid Drive vs Hub Drive

Mid-Drive

With mid drive systems, the motor is housed centrally within the bottom bracket, keeping the centre of gravity low and central, making for a more balanced ride.

Typically mid drive motors are more intuitive, with triple sensor technology used to measure pedalling power, cadence and speed over 1000 times a second to ensure the force of the motor is harmoniously coordinated with the riders’ cycling style.

 The new smart system from Bosch combines high-quality eBike components with digital functions, is fully connected and always up to date thanks to over-the-air updates.

Hub-Drive

A hub motor can be mounted in the front or back wheel. Hub motors have sensors to detect a rider’s pedaling and power is sent to the motor.

Power delivery varies, some hub motors are able to measure power lots of times every pedal stroke, making them responsive.

Others are simpler, measuring only a few times per stroke, resulting in a linear power delivery.
