    OMNI Custom Motor Settings - assumption correct?

    @nwroller, your assumption is correct, to the left is less and rightward is more.

    Thinking about selling my ST2

    I just sold one of my Stromers (ST1 Elite) on eBay and shipped it from the west coast to the east, using a shipping box from https://www.shipbikes.com. I was able to get a discounted FedEx ground rate using their website. The buyer said the bike arrived in excellent shape. I had to use the...

    Change dealer in Omni App

    Anyone know how to change the dealer in the Omni app? Weirdly my Omni app has a dealer that went out of business as the go to Stromer dealer, instead of the one I bought the ST2s from.

    Stromer ST1 platium - chain falls off constantly

    Correctly tension the chain and adjust the amount of chain wrap round the rear cassette (this will also improve the speed and smoothness of the shifts) and it won't fall off anymore. I only have had this happen after my dealer left mine out of adjustment.

    Thudbuster / Body Float

    I have both, and whilst the TB is very good, the BF is amazing; I exclusively use the BF now.

    The rear tire always skids when I panic stop

    Definitely recommend you train yourself to perform emergency stops under safe conditions and develop muscle memory and instinct, before you need to do a real one. It'll pay off in spades later.

    ST2s Torque Sensor Recalibration Recommended After Axle Retighten

    On my Stromer ST2s, I access the settings menu using the "on" button under the crossbar. Then the "SENSOR" menu Which brings up "CALIBRATE SENSOR" or "SET SENSOR LEVEL" Sitting on the bike, without touching the pedals or brakes, select "CALIBRATE SENSOR"

    Very bad head shake or shimmy

    If it wobbles on the stand, then the issue is definitely imbalance in the wheel and/or its components, since it eliminates all of the other factors. I'm wondering it there is a way to add compensating controls to the wheel in the same way a car wheel is balanced after new tires are fitted.

    Very bad head shake or shimmy

    I recommend eliminating the headset adjustment as a cause first, by confirming it is adjusted the way you want. Note, adjustment is more about feel than being able to use a series of torque settings etc. It's not difficult to do yourself and the late Sheldon Brown has some good info on how here...

    Very bad head shake or shimmy

    Did they check the bearings? Is there any noticeable play in the head end?

    Very bad head shake or shimmy

    I had something similar from new; setting the headset with just the right amount of preload fixed it and also got rid of the front brake judder at the same time.

    ST2s Torque Sensor Recalibration Recommended After Axle Retighten

    After retightening my axle, I noticed my Stomer ST2s power was very touchy, on/off during pedaling and it was hard work getting above 23mph in setting 3. I stopped, accessed the torque sensor setting in the menu and selected recalibrate (you have to be sitting on the bike without touching the...

    I agree.

    If you looked at the ST1 and the ST2, how did you decide?

    YMMV, but so far my ST1 Elite has been incredibly reliable and ST2s is doing well also. However, our climate is very temperate most of the time in northern Oregon, so my bikes don't get heat stressed too often.

    If you looked at the ST1 and the ST2, how did you decide?

    I have both an ST1 Elite (upgraded to triple chainring) and an ST2s. After riding the ST2s and then going back to the ST1, I notice that the ST2s definitely has better poise and handling, with slightly less weight and a tad more power (especially above 20mph) and of course incredible range (with...

    Drive Error on ST2

    There's no other way to field repair the rear tire without wheel removal, hence the instructions in the manual. However, in the event of an issue, this bullet in the warranty could be applied: Repairs that have not been carried out by trained specialists

    Handlebar bike mirrors?

    No, just like my car, I always adjust my mirrors to see both behind me and as much to the side as possible. If I can see my car's body or my own (on the bike), then the mirror isn't adjusted outward enough for me.

    Handlebar bike mirrors?

    I've used an Oberon StreetFighter black bar end mirror on both my ST1 Elite and ST2S. They are rock solid and have never vibrated loose in 2000 miles. The mirrors are actually designed for motorbikes, but work great for e-bikes as well.
