Bez limitu (English: No Limit) is the eighth studio album by the Polish musical group 2 Plus 1, released in 1983 by Tonpress.

The LP saw a departure from the band's previous pop-folk style in favour of more new wave-oriented music. It was recorded during the martial law in Poland and showcased political lyrics, all written by Andrzej Mogielnicki.[3] Bez limitu met with positive critical reception and commercial success.[4] In early 1984, it was awarded with gold certification for selling over 150,000 copies.[5] It spawned the hits "Requiem dla samej siebie", "XXI wiek (dla wszystkich nas)" and "Superszczur".

The album was reissued on CD by Agencja Artystyczna MTJ in 2003, and again on LP in 2019.[6]
