Resolving Speed Limiter Issues on EU E-Bike Versions
If your EU-spec e-bike is stuck at 25 km/h, it may be due to the onboard speed limiter. Here’s how to address this issue safely:
Step 1: Identify the Limiter Wire
-
The speed limiter is often controlled via a specific wire in the controller or wiring harness.
-
Cutting or disconnecting the correct wire can remove the limit, but the location may vary depending on the production batch.
Step 2: Firmware-Locked Models
-
Some EU e-bikes, such as Bosch-equipped eKFV models, have a firmware-enforced speed limit.
-
For these models, do not attempt hardware modifications.
-
Contact the dealer or manufacturer for an official unlock code or firmware update.
Important Safety Note
-
Removing a speed limiter may violate local regulations and could affect warranty coverage.
-
Always ensure that any modifications comply with local laws and safety standards.
