    New Stromer flagship ST7

    Alinghi. This name has an aura in Switzerland. Since alinghi, Switzerland is ranked on the seafarer list. Last year, Ernesto Bertarelli announced to challenge the cup together with Dietrich Mateschitz. The Alinghi Red Bull Racing Team was born. Today, Stromer is presented as the e-bike...

    New Stromer flagship ST7

    The EU invented a very complex legislation around the 45km/h E-Bikes. A company needs at least one FTE to understand and follow. In terms of power, the maximum is 4kW. As a 4000W motor would require a battery like in a motorcycle, no one does this. The nominal power is tightly controlled - to...

    New Stromer flagship ST7

    For sure, a Stromer is always compliant in each market. If only 750W are allowed in your country, Stromer will adapt. The question is: How is this rule defined? It is well known that the peak power of a Stromer is clear above 1.2kW - and within the legislation. A Stromer is strongest during...

    New Stromer flagship ST7

    Yes, from horn to piezo-sound. There is no more space for a real horn. I add the specs for Europe, formally, the US might be somewaht different.

    New Stromer flagship ST7

    There is no average. These are the technical specifications of the ST7 drivetrain. With this, you can calculate the gearing and cadence or speed. The easiest way to do so is to put the values in the gearing calculator on the Pinion website. Or you make a test ride on the ST7. This particular...

    New Stromer flagship ST7

    I would say, it's not a near missed, it's far. 39T and 22T, 2180mm, 12 gear Pinion says this: Front = 39 sprocket Rear = 22 sprocket Tyre circumference = 2180mm Type of gearbox = Pinion C1.12 As we're talking about street legal e-bikes, I would suggest their Vmax = 45 km/h as target of the...

    New Stromer flagship ST7

    This brings us to the key question: How much is the riders cadence on a ST7 pedaling in the largest gear? I know, experts do their own calculation to get confident in the result. He're the base values: 39T and 22T, 2180mm, 12 gear Pinion.

    New battery and throttle grip for Stromer ST1 2012.

    From which source do you know this?

    New battery and throttle grip for Stromer ST1 2012.

    Very impressive work! How did you manage the use of the 1to1energy battery for such a long time? Some users build their own 48V range extenders on the 27½" Stromer, but never heard from a self build 36V battery. May you estimate the overall costs (without time, tools and repair shop)? The...

    More torque sensor issues ... suggestions?

    What's the difference between a strong but limp and a strong and agile e-bike? It's the torque sensor and how the controller deals with its values. For sure, there is no free lunch; a sensitive sensor goes along with a difficult handling of the sensor. If you have the mechanical skills, the...

    The all new Stromer ST5 ABS

    It was July, 15th 2020 as I published the first teaser for the upcoming Stromer ST5 ABS. Only at the end of August, the bike was presented to the public at the „Stromer Universe Public Day Switzerland". I did my first test ride on the same event - and of course the first tests of the ABS...

    New Stromer flagship ST2022

    I don't make much words as I already wrote a lot here: https://www.stromerforum.ch/showthread.php?tid=3334 I can't believe in a new motor as long the "Faktor 4" rules are valid in the EU. The current motors power is already cut uphill due to these (useless and annoying) EU bureaucracy. Even at...

    The all new Stromer ST5 ABS

    That's not all! The key point is: Are you able to call the power? Only a short rider can release the whole power of the ST5. You can easily monitor this on the power rating bar on the display. The 1st issue during acceleration ist to shift gear as fast as you accelerate. That's why you have the...

    New Stromer ST3 with Pinion C1.9 and Gates carbon belt

    Yeah, great idea! Will help those who can afford a 11k CHF Stromer but haven't the bucks for the bike mechanic and are unwilling to read the manual.

    Torque rating on E-bikes - marketing gimmick?

    I'm very curious on this; especially, if it is possible to determine torque values at travel speed. We had an annoying debate about the miraculous battery capacity and energy consumption of an AirTag. People wants to believe what the Tech Leaders tell them. So they believe in Hydrogen powered...

    The all new Stromer ST5 ABS

    If I could earn money by selling high end batteries, I would do the same: Tell the customers to charge them at highest current ever. This is definitely reduce the batteries lifetime quickly - and I can sell a new one :-) Will Vanmoof become the Theranos of the 45 commuter bike industrie?

    New Stromer ST3 with Pinion C1.9 and Gates carbon belt

    Pinion & Gates, sold as the ultimate solution. But those who ride the farmost Kilometers at all weather, doing maintenance and repair at their own - these people always choose chain and derailleur. So, why a bike messenger won't have the "ultimate solution" on his bike (even not for free)?
