    Rixen Kaul bike bag setup

    See my pics in this thread below. My racktop back has zip down panniers. I just wrap the bungee around the frame. https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/stromer-city-kit-rear-rack-adjuster-for-kickflick-accesssories.4239/#post-46803

    Stromer ST1 codes

    Can you elaborate? Does this code disengage the brake lever from the motor regen when squeezed?

    Seat post security

    Has anyone ditched the quick release seat post clamp for something more secure? After installing a body float I would like to see that it stays there after I return to it. This article has a few ideas. http://www.citylab.com/navigator/2015/06/how-to-not-get-your-bike-seat-stolen/396554/ I was...

    Cassette washer

    I got in contact with Stromer and they are sending me a spacer. In the meantime, after a trip to Lowe's, a stack of washers seemed to work ok... provided that they didn't rotate with the real wheel rotating. It took a little experimenting.

    Were you able to find a spacer for between the freewheel and frame? I changed my tube yesterday...

    Were you able to find a spacer for between the freewheel and frame? I changed my tube yesterday and lost the stock spacer. I need some sort of replacement. I was going to go to a big box store to find some sort of replacement. Thanks.

    Cassette washer

    I was changing a tube out today on the rear wheel of the ST1 (3/4" nail). After the repair miles away I realized that the large washer/spacer that goes between the cassette and the frame was missing, making it impossible to use the highest gear because the chain doesn't fit, not to mention the...

    wet weather handling

    I went down on my stromer st-1 twice with the Big Bens. #1 - 37 degrees F, but a wooden bridge didn't thaw yet. Front wheel hit the black ice and down goes Frazier. #2 - Receded flood left some fine silt on the bike path. It rehydrated a few days later after a sprinkle and the front wheel hit...

    Stromer ST1 Platinum Larger ring size?

    Check that... the Schlumpf speed drive has a 1.65x overdrive ratio, which would take a 30T to a 49.5T. 49.5 on the front with 11 on the back @ 30mph with 26" wheel is a cadence of around 86/87. Doesn't seem like a spin out. If you leave the speeddrive on the 30T, then at 30mph the cadence is...

    Stromer ST1 Platinum Larger ring size?

    Your ST1t has the Schlumpf drive right? With a 30 tooth chainring? Isn't there a button on the side of the crank that increases the gear ratio? Which should increase the ratio to something more like a 45 tooth chainring. A 45 on the front with 11 on the back at 30mph is slightly over 90 cadence...

    Post pics of your Stromer here

    Great pics laptop guy. How many cane covers did you buy to cover the lock? 1?2? I have the same one New York lock. What a great idea! I have just been scratching my rear fender every time I place and remove the lock around the rear tire/ frame.

    Stromer City Kit Rear Rack adjuster for Kickflick accesssories

    Each of the 4 points of the two rails of the snap-it adapter rotate in or out depending on how wide your racktime rack is. This is not done easily. It does not require tools, but it feels as though you are going to break it. I've never had to touch it since adjusting it from wide to narrow. See...

    Stromer City Kit Rear Rack adjuster for Kickflick accesssories

    I went through exactly what you went through. You need the racktime snap it adapter. It will fit both narrow and wide racktime racks. I had to buy it from eBay in Germany. I bought a Topeak velcro bag with fold down side panniers and drove 4 screws through the bottom of the bag into the...

    ST1 Platinum Display Issues

    When I received my bike a few months ago, I couldn't read the display despite playing with the contrast code. Call your dealer. Mine replaced the display unit. New unit works fine.

    Bike Lock Mount on ST2

    The New York U-lock that I bought comes with a quick release holder. Same setup should work with a comfort frame. It does not interfere with my pedal stroke. Haven't had to adjust it since I mounted it.

    People are strange

    Keep up the good work Phanes. Pretty soon you'll be able to attain that speed at a 1 assist. In a few months you'll have the same conversation, then blow by him in 3.

    Water resistance

    Does anyone have any experience with an ST-1 riding in the rain? I suppose I'm looking for disaster stories. I don't plan on riding in heavy downpours, but if I do get caught in the rain. I would like to know if the ST-1 is sound and not susceptible to electrical damage. Thanks.
