    (SOLD) 2016 Stromer 17” ST2S ST2 S for sale greater Boston

    This item has been sold. I posted this bike about 18 months ago, but I was having trouble with it (and noted this in the initial ad). However, just over a year ago, I had the torque sensor replaced and upgraded to the latest compatible Omni C unit. Since the repair, the bike has worked...

    Issues with "New Code" to pair bike to updated Omni app

    Has anyone else had trouble getting your Stromer to issue a "New Code" QR code for pairing bike to Omni app? I've got a Stromer ST2S and my dealer recently replaced my torque sensor. It looks like they also updated the Omni C firmware because I found that my iOS Omni mobile app was not...

    More torque sensor issues ... suggestions?

    I posted about a torque sensor issue I had back in early March here: https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/torque-sensor-question.41234/ Yesterday, I encountered a similar, but different, issue. After the March issue, I have made a practice of calibrating the torque sensor before almost...

    Regen question

    I have noticed that I have a very difficult time exceeding ~30 - 32 mph on my ST2S. I understand that assist will go away around 28 - 30 mph, but I can easily surpass 35 mph and push up into the upper 30s (and sometimes 40s if the grade is long enough) on steep downhill sections on my non-e road...

    Torque sensor question

    I had an interesting issue this morning. It has been ~6 weeks since my last ST2S commute (I don't like riding when snow banks narrow the roads too much). This weekend I took the opportunity to install a longer stem with a -15* angle to get a more aggressive / aero position on the bike. Following...

    Mounting options of Supernova M99 Pro

    Hey everyone - it has been a good first few weeks with my ST2S. I logged two round-trip commutes and am definitely glad I went with this bike. I have used as much as 530 Wh for one-way, and I'm quite confident the mid-drive bikes I was looking at would not have enabled the speeds I've been...

    eDoping quantified!

    I started a thread about measuring my own (e.g. human) power output while riding my Stromer here: Stromer power meter options Because I do have some Garmin Vector pedals on a bike that I'm not likely to use until the spring I swapped them over to the Stromer this morning for a test ride. My...

    Thoughts on best power meter

    Hi all - I have a bit of an obsession with bike data. I'm an engineer, and engineers have a hard time knowing that they are having fun without the data ;) One of the things that I found very appealing about the Specialized ebikes is that they broadcast the data from their torque sensor and...

    Sleep vs Off

    What do you all do with regards to turning your Stromer Off vs letting it go to sleep? Mine will live in an unheated garage. I’ve got the BT-based Auto Unlock feature activated, but I’m wondering whether I should use “Off” or sleep for day-to-day operation. How good is the sleep function? Of...

    What's the difference between Omni app and Omni BT app?

    Can someone help me understand the difference between these two apps? I looked quickly on the Stromer site, but no obvious answers.

    Few questions about new (to me) ST2S

    It took a bit longer than expected to re-assemble my new (to me) ST2S, but I think I have it mostly sorted. A few lingering questions for the experts ... This thing appears to belong not the rear hub. Should it be in place when installing the rear wheel or what? What’s its purpose? See first...

    Finally pulled the trigger ...

    After searching for an ebike for my commuter (Looking to reduce commute time), I recently changed direction and bought a used Stromer ST2S with <50 km and just a few weeks of time on it. It should be on its way to me today. I'm very excited! Question for the forum: the Stromer website seems to...

    Questions about Stromer and ST5

    Hi all, I have not been looking at Stromers despite their apparent fit for my goal (high-speed commuter) primarily due to price. However, my LBS has a demo ST5 on sale with the Wren fork and Kinekt seat post options. I would still need the rack option. Questions: I'm a data junky. What data is...

    Bosch displays: Kiox vs Smartphone Hub vs new Nyon

    Hi all - I have seen a few threads on Kiox vs Smartphone Hub (SPH), but none with a ton of detail. I understand the potential mount issues with SPH as well as potential glare from a smartphone screen. How about functionality? What are the main differences between Kiox and the Cobi(?) app used by...

    Bosch Gen 4 question re torque sensor

    Does anyone know if the Bosch Gen 4 motor transmits rider input power data (either via ANT+ or BTLE) like the Specialized SL 1.1 motor? What about total power? I rode a Trek Domane+ HP 7 yesterday, and it is clear that the Kiox controller has some power data, but it isn’t clear whether that can...

    Trek Domane+ HP 7 vs Specialized Turbo Creo SL Carbon Comp

    About a week ago, I did a short test ride on a Specialized Turbo Vado SL followed by a Creo SL Carbon Comp. I preferred the riding position of the Creo and was strongly leaning in that direction to enable a fast ~40 mile round trip commute as described: Avid cyclist looking to reduce 40 mile...
