They look interesting, the "Advanced" one anyway as it enables some tuning of modes/power via the bluetooth app and also shows things like rider and motor power, which could be useful for Purion owners. They seem helpful, I had this back from an enquiry :

Here below I give you some more details about our kits.

Our kit unlocker for Bosch allows you, for € 167,00 (ex-works: shipping costs and any customs duties are responsibilities of the recipient), to maintain the assistance up to more than 50 Km/h.
Installation is simple as it takes place in a few minutes, without opening the engine, without the help of power supply, nor the unsealing of the original part.
Once installed, the kit is totally invisible as it is housed inside the crankcase.

You can activate/deactivate the unlocker using the walk button that is the factory setting; you can change this choice using lights or reset button.
The speedometer will always show the real speed.

Here you can see the whole procedure for the installation and activation.

The device is compatible with Purion, Nyon, Kiox and Intuvia displays.
Displayed data are correct.

Our chip has countermeasures against the anti-tuning system and can’t be detected by it.
Furthermore, the same chip is compatible both with 2021 and older engines.

And we also have the version of the chip with Bluetooth, called Advanced Tuning.
The Advanced Tuning kit includes, for € 223,00 ex-works, the chip and the Tuning app that allows you, with a symbolic in-app purchase of € 0,99 for liability reasons, to customize your driving style according to the speed and the power delivery.
The Tuning app has different mappings from which users can choose: eco, urban, touring, enduro trial and race.
The Tuning app allows you to set the speed at 25, 35, 50 or 75 km\h.

The different possible payment methods are PayPal (with a 3,5% extra fee due to the PayPal commissions), Visa\Mastercard or bank transfer.

In order to send you the proforma invoice with the payment methods, I just need:

- Your order
- Your data: name, shipping address, phone number.

Shipping times are about 15-30 days.

The problem with all these devices (not just this particular device) is that you can never be sure whether they really do bypass the anti tampering software that bosch implemented.

Its easy to say that your device successfully bypasses the anti tampering, but without something to back that statement up, I consider it to be just hot air.

If they could describe exactly how they manage to avoid triggering the anti tamper software then that would be something, but I just dont trust that they do manage it.

The same goes for all these kinds of devices, volspeed claim the same , and for some people it does seem to be the case that they never get the anti tamper errors, but then others owners do get the errors.

Exactly; if the stupid Bosch system is just going to 504 the rider out so they have to push home and connect a power drill to the bike to fix it, would be still a royal pita… The only real fix to my knowledge is a custom firmware disabling the tamper protection.

I think everyone must be slightly intrigued about these devices and also bulk at the consequences of a failure from a warranty point of view.
I wont be getting one, but I cant help but think just that little bit more would of been nice. 18.5 mph would be plenty.

Well, I did ask about a discount to buy one and try it - as I'm not that interested in it but thought it would be good to try and review.

But nothing came of that, so not happening.
