    Stromer ST2020 concept bike - Gates belt drive and 5 speed integrated gearbox

    Down at the bottom bracket, where the most people never had a closer look, comes the latest redesign of the new ST2. The horn is no longer more or less covered outside the frame:

    Stromer ST2020 concept bike - Gates belt drive and 5 speed integrated gearbox

    Je me remerci pour cette présentation. Oubliez le bruit du vent mais regardez l'accélération. Pour présenter la puissance exceptionnel du Stromer, lui commence dans le 5ieme vitesse. Malheureusement, il a oublier le klaxon (quelle est nouveau est plus fort). (J'ai une autre suggestion...

    Tips to improve TMM4 torque sensor reliability

    I don't spend my spare time with Park Tool stand and Allen key. But many, especially in Germany, do so. And often end up with horrible sensor voltage values (and their consequences). So I will adopt this to stromerforum.ch :)

    New Stromer ST5 LTD

    If a pro does it just in front of my camera, it' looks like this. But you can't repeat this on a Stromer (apart from sitting like a frog on the bike), because the saddle is higher than the handlebar. In an emergency brake, you will lifted out of the saddle, the your feet lose contact to the...

    Replacing Stolen Stromer ST2 S

    You consider to buy a mid drive? This is a clear sign, that there is no need for the more sophisticated Stromer. Take this one where the bike shop is closer to your route.

    Stromer Service and/or advice needed.

    Dan Delehanty is the General Manager North America, Brian Van Pelt is Director Of Sales - but I expect none of them would answer. Try to ask Brett Thurber, he might know more.

    New Stromer ST5 LTD

    Due to the excellent motor brake, the mechanical brake is only rarely in use. Depending the environment (humidity / ºC) the Stromer is, the annoying noise is inevitable. Some people swear on the organic SwissStop brake pads. Give them a try.

    New Stromer ST5 LTD

    All OMNI C have the same functionality - and the "est. remaining range" is part of it. What kind of Stromer do you ride?

    New Stromer ST5 LTD

    Yes, for sure. Thömu is not only the founder of Stromer, he also offers the Lightrider E2 pro.

    Torque rating on E-bikes - marketing gimmick?

    It comes from school, a long time ago. Id did check now, how today's opinion is: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drehmoment#Ma%C3%9Feinheit

    Torque rating on E-bikes - marketing gimmick?

    Sorry, I can't follow. I see no way to comfrom Power to Torque through calculation. If you start with Power and then removing Time you get Work. Now you can remove Distance and you will end up with Weight. The key point is Work is not Torque even if the physical symbols looks similar.

    Torque rating on E-bikes - marketing gimmick?

    Interesting statement; according the technical specifications my Stromer has a torque of 25NM. Which mid drive motor - mounted in a street legal 45 km/h ebike - has less?

    Torque rating on E-bikes - marketing gimmick?

    But I did - because of my experience with my Stromer over the past 10 years: Never could a mid drive compete with my Stromer - and all these Bosch & Brose have much higer torque values then my Stromer.

    Torque rating on E-bikes - marketing gimmick?

    It seems, you have forgotten, it's about bicycles. You have to pedal on such vehicles. And as a human being, the possible range of cadence is narrow. That's why the third parameter is important: Speed of the eBike. At the end, the result will be: Hub drives have higher torque values on higher...

    Torque rating on E-bikes - marketing gimmick?

    Yes, please. The connotation in this thread title is: "How is it possible to beat all these mid drives with their extra-high torque values on the daily commute with a Stromer?" The answer is rather simple: A mid drive motor has to overcome the drivetrain. The make torque values of mid drives...

    Torque rating on E-bikes - marketing gimmick?

    Hmm, but they did. You can fit the Macan with a roof box and many other things and none of them will fit on the Carrera 4S. Is this a problem for a 911-no-turbo-customer? Of course not; and not the other customers is it only a hypothetical problem. The BMC Teammachine SLR01 ONE costs about...

    Torque rating on E-bikes - marketing gimmick?

    The lineup form Stromer goes from ST1 to ST2 over ST3 up to ST5. The variety of these models is much more than only motor output. Each has its own geometry - and for the most of them are different options for the seating position available. This is something you have to test before you buy.
