The Bosch PowerTube 600 (smart system) is proprietary to the Bosch Smart System (BES3) drive, so it fits that system and no other. The smart-system PowerTube 600 shares its mount with the PowerTube 800, so on frames the maker approves the 600 and 800 can be swapped. It is a smart-system-only pack and will not run in an eBike System 2 bike.

Confirm the mount and the Bosch smart-system round charge port on your own frame, because packs that look identical across generations do not always interchange.
