The SpeedBox 1.3 completely removes the 25 km/h speed limit for e-bikes with Shimano EP8/EP800 drives, allowing you to ride much faster with full motor support. It's a tuning tool in the classic sense. This tuning chip has been redesigned and comes in a completely new design, including new hardware and firmware. The chip must be plugged into the E-Tube connector on the motor.
Important note: The manufacturer recommends not exceeding a speed of 35 km/h to avoid error W011. For B.Tuning models, the maximum speed can be adjusted in the SpeedBox App adjust accordingly.
Note: If you have a Shimano E-Bike without a free E-Tube connection (e.g. models with Di2 gears), please select the variant +E-Tube PortThis is usually the case with Shimano e-bikes with one of the following components:
Satellite system ON/OFF switch
Di2 derailleur
Tuning can be switched on and off
After installing the chip, you can activate and deactivate the tuning using the light button on the e-bike. When the light is off, the tuning is active and you can ride at unlimited speed (light off = tuning on). As soon as you turn the light back on, the tuning chip is deactivated and motor support ends, as in normal mode, at 25 km/h (light on = tuning off).
By the way, you can also use the tuning completely independently of the lighting function. In this case, you simply need to leave the red plug unplugged during installation; then the tuning will always be activated. If the e-bike doesn't have a lighting function, the tuning will also always be active.
Please note: With active tuning, the e-bike display will only show the correct data up to 23 km/h. If you don't want to miss out on accurate data such as your current speed, we recommend GPS-enabled devices such as smartphones. It's best to attach your phone directly to the handlebars so you can easily see the data. Affordable brackets can be found in our shop.

Important information on tuning measures for e-bikes and e-scooters
We expressly point out that any modification to e-bikes and e-scooters – whether through hardware tuning (e.g. tuning chips, dongles, sensor adapters) or software tuning (e.g. apps, programs or USB tools) – can have consequences.
Tuning measures on e-bikes and e-scooters mean that they are no longer permitted for use on public roads as defined by the StVZO (Road Traffic Licensing Regulations). Legal use is therefore only possible on private property or - if permitted - in competitions. Riding an e-bike or e-scooter modified by tuning measures on public roads can lead to criminal liability for driving without a license (Section 21 of the Road Traffic Act) and driving without insurance (Section 6 of the PflVG). Tuning measures on e-bikes can lead to the loss of warranty rights and manufacturer guarantees. Furthermore, tuning measures can lead to the loss of insurance coverage and benefits from accident victim assistance in the event of an accident. The e-bike (or e-scooter) modified by tuning measures is subject to additional stress due to the higher speed, which can lead to safety risks.
