BADASSBOX for BOSCH Motors
Where is your sensor?
The speed sensor and its positioning are decisive for which badass box you need. We distinguish between the classic mounting on the chain stay, the integrated mounting in the area of the dropout and the sensor inside the motor casing.
Sensor on the chain stay
A good indication that your sensor is on the chain stay is the presence of a spoke magnet.
In addition, the sensor is usually direct and easily visible.
Sensor in the area of the dropout
If the sensor is integrated, then you do not have a spoke magnet, but instead a magnet on the brake disc.
To get a good view of the sensor, it is recommended to remove the rear wheel.
Sensor inside the motor casing
If you are unable to spot your sensor, don't worry. It probably is mounted inside the motor casing. Check the bike manual for the type of the motor and the production year. Choose your badassBox accordingly.
