Are you totally sold on mid drive as a quality hub drive can be totally silent? I am spoiled with my Stromers as I have been testing mid drives and they all are too noisy for my taste. My hub motor is totally silent, allows for recharging battery when you brake and hub drive chains and...

?? One review said the E Pinion 12 did automatically shift at the top/bottom pedal position where it is smoothest shift. Sounds like that is not true???

?? Could Stromer agree to leave bikes, when requested, at the original higher speed assist BUT the owners would need to be in a higher vehicle class AND might have to register/ insure/ and driver’s license?? Those requirements would suck but at least you’d have a better bike experience.

ST7 delays have happened with last update that gold model would be in US the end of January. Has that happened? What is latest on gold model delivery? And, what is expected delivery of Platinum Grey in US? Appreciate any updates on delivery. Thanks

Any update on if/when the Platinum ST7 will get M99 Pro 2 light upgrade? Or on expected delivery date in US for Platinum ST7? Was Gold ST7 delivery delayed to end of January?

That’s too bad on the dark platinum end of May arrival. The all gold is too over the top for me . Thinking of selling my ST5 with 450 miles and getting the ST7. Too bad it is priced like solid platinum….

For those with actual ST7s, what headlight is on it? M99 Pro or new M99 Pro2 ? It should be the Pro2 but guessing not the Pro2 If not now, for sure should update for the ST7 platinum grey model!!!

Hi, I have Timbuktu Classic Messenger bag but back gets hot from crossover smothering your skin. Any easy way to attach it to RackTime pannier frame? And very secure? Specifically the Stromer Rack Time frame… Nice to take a load off to allow more storage on longer rides! And not have to buy...

@FrankPoz , regarding noise at low cadence levels: I rode the TQ Trek mtn bike version and it was very quiet at all cadence levels. It was limited to 20 mph so I could not get a preview of how the Domane + version might be with less weight and road tires.

US Stromer ST5 for sale. Only 500 miles. Golden US address included😀 $5,400 See want ads. 28 mph Minnesota but can deliver close to Canadian entry city…. It does suck that Stromer is now forced to comply with crazy CA law. 🙁

That anti theft Stromer is the good side of external control. It can bite you in the butt though… Did a 74 mile ride and at the end at ice cream social I moved the bike 40 feet to another spot. Bike was off and it went into theft mode…. Rear wheel gets locked by intentional motor resistance...

Stromer has been the non-compliance company and now got caught. I was just talking with a Canadian Trek dealer about ordering a Trek E Domane with new TQ motor and it is limited to 18 mph assist so other bikes are already subject to this insane limit! It is like buying a new Corvette that is...

Yes, but the HPR120 is not a natural feel, next generation type of motor. And it is loud. It is not what I am hoping for, a HPR50 x 2

I did a ride of the Trek TQ mountain bike and it is really quiet which I loved. I was hoping it would feel stronger , but wasn’t sure what to expect, compared to my Stromers. TQ motor is tiny tiny so wishing for a 500 + watt version which would still be small. It will be very interesting to...

IMO, hub drives AND mid drives without a throttle are bicycles. Hub drives AND mid drives with a throttle….. they are electric mopeds. No pedaling necessary Our state of MN also uses that as the legal definition of bikes allowed to use official bike paths. It does not matter where the...

I totally understand how mid drives use the gear reduction to get more torque BUT a quality hub electric motor doesn’t really need a transmission/ gears. Look at diesel electro locomotives. They pull 150 tons from a dead stop, via electric motors, and no 12 speed trannies required. That’s the...

B.S. alert on this article. “Bosch mid drives 70-80% efficiency and hub drives 30%. “ 😵‍💫 Where did that come from? A direct drive hub motor with no loses getting to the drive wheel vs mid drive with gears or belt and then sprocket chain transfer….. Gee, does he happen to sell mid drives...

@SC00CHB00CH , I wanted to compare 500 watt systems, can mid drive 500 W climb at 20 mph? Your 1280 watts better be able to blast up hills. My point was to counter the hub drive stereotype that they cannot climb…..

Mid drives can multiple their torque (nM or ft/lbs) BUT there is no free lunch. When they multiply torque (let’s say 10X) their speed/ angular velocity is 1/10. Power stays the same ….you just geared way down for more torque. A 500 watt motor only has 500 watts, period. My experience with a...
