    People are strange

    Love the look of the ST2S. I have Di2 on my road bike and love the gear change, it makes a huge difference. I have done 1500km on my St2 and with the cable stretch, I could not get it to change into the lowest gear. I have tuned it now and it is better. Love the fact that the Di2 never has those...

    ST2 Kickstand Issue

    Ditto with the kickstand, the sooner I find the replacement the better, the kickstand that is on the bike is ridiculous, I have almost dropped the bike a couple of times when it automatically retracts...

    People are strange

    I could not agree more with you @jstepy. I commute 30km each way to work most days when the weather allows. Commuting home I have a 4km climb that is pretty steep in places. I could not do that every day on my road bike, it becomes unpleasant, to say the least. I can get to work in 45 min and...

    New ST2 owners

    @Michiel you will love the bike. Make sure to carry your key with you at all times. If you follow some of my other threads you will see why. The best addition I have made is a body float seat post... Expensive but makes a huge difference in the ride comfort.

    Light weight travel battery charger for ST2 available?

    I looked high and low and could not find one. I was told there is only one charger. Had to pay over $300 for a second charger.... major rip off if you ask me!

    Strange charging issues with ST 2

    Spoke to someone at Stromer USA today and confirmed they are aware of the issue with the drive error and battery error. The next firmware upgrade should hopefully take care of it. A bit surprising to be honest that such a major glitch is taking so long to fix. It should not be necessary to have...

    Strange charging issues with ST 2

    Thanks Ravi. That makes sense, my battery was 100% charged and when I used maximum regen it must have caused the issue. Wish I knew there was a solution before pushing the bike uphill for 30 min

    Strange charging issues with ST 2

    Got the bike back up and running this evening...removed battery one more time, error Drive motor showed up and a few seconds later disappeared and them normal screen with 100% battery. Took the bike for a 10km ride and all seems fine. Not so reassuring that this could happen at any time on my...

    Strange charging issues with ST 2

    LBS will try and look at it before the weekend. I have to get it there... Tried calling Stromer, left a message hours ago and no call back... Dead in the water for now!

    Strange charging issues with ST 2

    I thought I would add that I now have a new issue to add. I got the drive error today while going down a steep road in max regen. Naturally I thought I could just take out battery and reboot and it would clear...Not so lucky, after numerous efforts, I had to push the bike 2km uphill with no...

    Questions about torgue and speed ST2

    I have noticed the same issue when using level 1 and 2. Not sure if there is a way to avoid this.

    Strange charging issues with ST 2

    I was looking at the Stromer forum in German...google does an Ok job of translating. These problems are discussed there. Apparently if you follow this sequence when charging it solves the issue. Bike must be off. Charger is not plugged in. The cord is connected to bike and then plugged into...

    Strange charging issues with ST 2

    Thanks Bob, good to know it is a known issue. Hopefully, an update is coming soon, it is a bit irritating when you are already concerned about range to have 5% taken away.... I mostly carry a key with me for the other issue where it will go to 0% after charging or restarting after turning the...

    Strange charging issues with ST 2

    the charging issue happens a few times a week now. No matter what I do I cannot get it to take a full charge, besides riding the bike on a trip, and then it will recharge. Seems to me it must be some kind of software glitch.

    Strange charging issues with ST 2

    ON a few occasions now, even though the battery is fully charged, when I turn the bike on battery shows 0% charge. I have to take battery out for a few seconds and then it will show the charge. Secondly, it often will not take a full charge, right now it is 95% charged, and whether the battery...

    Commuter Bikes

    Lots of factors to consider. How far is you commute to work? Are there steep gradients? How much do you weigh? budget? The speed of the bike is also a factor.
