The new bosch purion 200
- Thread starter Dano78
- Start date
I'm planning to order it once it's available, hopefully from next week, but it has to be coded to the bike by a Bosch dealer.

What do you mean about coded to the bike

I think he means a Bosch dealer has to connect it to the bike? That would mean its not plug and play?
Probably the same as for the Kiox which also has to be paired with the CX motor using Bosch supplied dealer software (was required when I upgraded from Purion to Kiox).
Yep, as @irie describes.
Just had mine fitted today. It’s a little chunkier than the led controller and doesn’t have any adjustability for mounting. Seems to do everything the led controller/kiox combo does other than navigation.
The motor ID has to be transferred to the purion. At this point the controllers can be swapped out and the bike will work. But only one controller can be registered to the flow app at one time. You have to reset and remove the bike from the app and reconnect with new controller. Kiox 300 can be linked in and out whenever you want.

Mine just turned up yesterday as well. I haven't fitted it yet but I'm disappointed about the lack of adjustability in the mount. I use solely my middle finger for braking (a habit I've never been able to lose) so my brake mount is located quite close to the grip, ~10mm. Sadly the Purion200 won't fit in this gap, meaning I either have to move the brake mount further inward (and make some new indentations on my carbon bars) or mount the Purion inboard of the brake mount, probably making it too far from the grip to reach comforatably.
Seems like a pretty a pretty pointless physical change to lose the lateral adjustment that the LED controller already had...

No need for a dealer fit...its plug and play other than the fact you have to re- pair with the flow app which is simple enough. Delete the previous pairing on your phone then run flow, use you existing Bosch account on flow then go through the pairing process as per the original LED Remote.
That's outstanding news, as I was dreading a trip to the dealer. I did try pairing already actually - phone successfully paired with the new module but Flow wouldn't recognise it. I didn't try deleting the pair of the old LED remote though, I'll give that a go.
I changed a LED Remote once. I think what I did was delete the flow app and then reload it. Delete the blutooth pairing on the phone. Then run the Flow app using you existing Bosch account details and do the pairing process. Not sure if all of that is necessary but it worked!
Yep, confirming that worked a treat - thanks very much. All paired up and working now. I'm guessing the requirement from Bosch that states you have to take it to a dealer is simply 1) so they avoid having to troubleshoot people's smartphones/apps, and 2) to get customers in the store to maybe purchase the latest and greatest gear.
Are you using it alone or together with the Kiox 300? Thx!
Alone, just a direct replacement for the LED remote.

Question on the Purion 200.. can the mount be narrowed to fit in the xt brake gap? Either by filing or milling the width so it will fit in the brake gap.
Thanks
Thanks
Where did you get the info that it does not fit into the XT brake gap?
If you mean the gap between the clamp and the little brace, it does fit as shown in my picture above. Pretty sure it’s designed to sit right next to the clamp with the little dip it has in the back of it. You cant really sit it anywhere else. It is a faff to get it on though. You have to fit the brake and controller simultaneously. I’ve also got a matchmaker for dropper lever which makes things easier.
Hi there can I ask if or how much it was for an ID Pair? I am getting quoted £105 from my lbs they can go swivel! I have mine fitted works without a conflict just now on software Version 8 on purion 200 but, fitted the led remote back to bike to perform latest update 1.22.7 today, all good fine range control etc but re fitting the purion 200 back it's asking on the home screen to update the software to what the flow app has just been updated to. It's for the purion to work with it all but it will throw out an error code on software V10 when updated! Bosch are telling me the flow app has nothing to do with the purion 200 updating and I know that's not true as 2 my friends updated their app and it updated the purion 200 when was connected! I am just not prepared to pay £105 to get an iD conflict corrected! We should be allowed a basic software disc like a cars OBD2 that we can rectify these error code issues like the warning lights on the dash!
Nothing. I bought it from the shop and they fitted it and set it up. It was the first one they had done so think they were just interested to see what’s what.
In the past they have quoted £30 for a diagnostic/update if that’s all that’s being done.
