I had about 1,550 miles on the clock and I charged it every time after I rode - so It must of been close to 600 charges. But since it was over the two year warranty period Stromer would not cut me a small break on a new battery so I paid full price on my new one.

@Ann M. - In my town bicycles are allowed to ride on sidewalks if they are being ridden by children 13 years old or younger. I have not seen a Segway in my area........

If you get a ST1 Platinum - just keep the speed under 20 mph when you're on a path or area that has a speed limit. I've riden my Platinum for three years all over my county and on fire roads in my area, but I keep the speed down to a safe, comfortable, and legal speed, and never ride like an azz...

The 14.5 Ah battery on my Stromer ST1 Platinum was fine for 2 years and 9 months, and in the last two weeks it turned into being useless. I charged my battery after almost every ride, and it charged into the 90% for most of that time. In the last two weeks it charged into the lower 80's twice...

I own a St1 Platinum and wash it when needed. I lightly go over it with a hose nozzle on shower mode, and then use a soft car mitt with a little car soap in a bucket. I'm careful not to soak any electrical areas too much, and overall don't get it too wet. I wipe down everything good with a towel...

Thanks for the heads-up!

Another Park Tool PCS-10 repair stand owner here. I've used mine for three years and it works on all my bikes - including my Stromer ST1 Platinum E-Bike. On my Stromer, I open the clamping jaw almost all the way and clamp my top tube as close to the seat as possible for a better weight...

Thanks - do you by any chance know what pads our Magura brakes need? I had the shop put the last pair in, but now that's something I'm comfortible doing.

I put the bike on my stand and spun the rear wheel - quarter turn or so. I pulled out the brake pads and it spun about a revolution and a half. I noticed the side that was rubbing had the thicker pad on it, so I put the thinner pad on that side and now it spins much better. I'm not sure if there...

Thanks for all the advice and suggestions. I'm heading down to the garage and putting it on the stand. I'll let you know what I find.

I forgot to add - the brakes were just bleed at the shop - could that have had something to do with this issue? Could they be overfilled causing the pads to not retract enough?

I will try loosening the caliper bolts first, then if that doesn't help I will pull the wheel and brake pads.

I tested my Stromer by leaning it against the kick-stand and slightly lifting the rear wheel off the ground. I will put it on the stand today to do it correctly.

I was not aware that my rotor was rubbing before, but it might have been. How many turns of the rear wheel is average for a ST1? I have never spun my rear wheel like I do on our non-Ebikes becuase the wheel motor has always felt to have a little drag - maybe that has always been my rotor?

The shop said they couldn't move the caliper over enough to center the rotor because the caliper was hitting the frame. I'm not sure why that is like that, but I will put the bike on the work stand tomorrow and see if the rotor is warped, or if I can move the caliper over enough to center the...

I have got the HEAT warning a few times. I let the bike rest for a few minutes and it goes off and the bike is back to normal. On my 2013 ST1 Platinum - I got 94% when my battery was fully charged for two years, then a few months ago it only registered arounf 85%, and then a few weeks later...

I own a 2013 St1 Platinum and the rear rotor is rubbing. I took it in for it's yearly service and they told me they could not get it to stop rubbing because the caliper hits the frame. Do all ST1's have this issue, or should I look into this further? When I spin the rear wheel it doesn't even...

If the person owned a fleet of Stromer rental bikes he was able to get replacement parts for dealer cost - see if he can order a new battery at that price and and sell it to you for what he just paid for it.

If the bike is over three years old, the battery may be near the end of it's life. The battery on my 2013 ST1 Platinum lasted just under three years.

I also have a ST1 Platinum, but wanted to go to a smaller chainring for the super steep hills I climb. I was warned by the bike shop that my front Derailleur would not work too well with a larger gap between chainrings. They told me I would have to go down from my 50 tooth to a smaller ring if I...
