3.3.6.5 BOSCH ABS
The BOSCH anti-blocking system (ABS) is an
optional accessory for the Magura hydraulic disc
brake. It is safer to brake with the two brakes at
the same time thanks to the BOSCH ABS.
Sensors on the wheels measure the wheel speed
and regulate the brake pressure. A distinction is
made between the front wheel and rear wheel
ABS in this respect.
Front wheel ABS
The ABS can prevent the front wheel from locking,
thus helping to prevent skidding.
Wheel speed sensors monitor the speed of the
wheels. If the front wheel is on the verge of locking
when brakes are applied too hard, the Bosch ABS
regulates the brake pressure and improves the
pedelec's driving stability and steerability. This is
particularly noticeable on slippery surfaces. The
balanced, sensitively regulated braking behaviour
provides greater control and stability.

If the brake is applied extremely hard to the front
wheel, the intelligent rear wheel lift-off control of
the Bosch ABS reduces the risk of your rear wheel
lifting off the ground unintentionally. It is less likely
that the rider will be thrown over the handlebars.
The front wheel brake can be used more actively
and efficiently.
Accessing braking statistics
Information about braking performance is
displayed on the display screen. The braking
distance and time are recorded when the front
brake is applied. This way, it is possible to
understand what influence a surface has on the
braking distance. Comparison and analysis can
improve braking behaviour.
