    (SOLD) 2016 Stromer 17” ST2S ST2 S for sale greater Boston

    This item has been sold. I posted this bike about 18 months ago, but I was having trouble with it (and noted this in the initial ad). However, just over a year ago, I had the torque sensor replaced and upgraded to the latest compatible Omni C unit. Since the repair, the bike has worked...

    Issues with "New Code" to pair bike to updated Omni app

    Has anyone else had trouble getting your Stromer to issue a "New Code" QR code for pairing bike to Omni app? I've got a Stromer ST2S and my dealer recently replaced my torque sensor. It looks like they also updated the Omni C firmware because I found that my iOS Omni mobile app was not...

    Hi - I'm curious if you ever sold your ST2S? I'm thinking of selling mine and wondering how the US Stromer market is these days.

    Tips to improve TMM4 torque sensor reliability

    Question for this thread. I just cleaned up my TMM4 sensor on my ST2S. I was surprised to see that the fourth screw in the photos above (the one NOT circled in a color) also threads into my TMM4 sensor. The sensor has threads for the rack screw. My ST2S TMM4 sensor definitely has four mounting...

    More torque sensor issues ... suggestions?

    While this may be true - when the sensor output randomly jumps from around 1V no load to around 0.2V no load, that’s not sensitivity. That’s an issue. One that neither I nor the Stromer tech support folks have been able to resolve. My suspicion is bad sensor but given the way they are wired it...

    More torque sensor issues ... suggestions?

    Yes - I've definitely done this (more than once).

    More torque sensor issues ... suggestions?

    Hi ryeo - interesting. I rode my Stromer a few weeks ago and had issues with the torque sensor. These days, I know enough to go into the right secret menu to reset its zero voltage, but this is more than just a shifting output from a sensor. When working, the sensor output is around 1V unloaded...

    More torque sensor issues ... suggestions?

    Yeah, that was this bit that I was referring to: "a Stromer TSB (that I’d have to dig up) on lubricating the head mating surface of certain sensor mount bolts. I’ve done it all"

    More torque sensor issues ... suggestions?

    @ryeo I’ve had intermittent issues with the torque sensor. I un-installed, cleaned and re-installed the torque sensor. I did receive a replacement sticker but when I uninstalled, that didn’t appear to be a significant issue. There is a Stromer TSB (that I’d have to dig up) on lubricating the...

    A Road-Cyclist Thoughts On E-Bikes

    @rdv - I would be a little cautious about your power math. I tested the SL1.1 motor as well as the latest from Bosch (Gen 4 or something - can’t remember the details since it has been about a year since I was in research mode) and eventually ended up with a used Stromer and its 500W nominal /...

    Thoughts on best power meter

    @Spicule yes, I believe so, and that was my hope / plan. However, I struggled to find a crank arm / spider power meter that was compatible with my ST2S. And I did not want to put ”roads” cleats on my Stromer. Garmin now has the Rally-line of pedal-based power meters, so those will probably work...

    More torque sensor issues ... suggestions?

    Thanks @Ravi Kempaiah - I pulled the rear wheel and cleaned up the sensor a bit. The sticker is starting to peel off (ordered another one from Stromer USA). It is handy to know the service menu secret handshake as now I can at least check on it if things are acting up.

    More torque sensor issues ... suggestions?

    I posted about a torque sensor issue I had back in early March here: https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/torque-sensor-question.41234/ Yesterday, I encountered a similar, but different, issue. After the March issue, I have made a practice of calibrating the torque sensor before almost...

    Torque sensor question

    @bluecat your final analysis is not correct. If the speed drops from 39 km/h to 20.7 km/h and the total power (300 W = 200 W motor plus 100 W rider), then the torque must increase. So the RPM will have dropped by 20.7/39 = 53% of its previous value and the torque must increase by that same...
