    Stromer ST2 compatible spokes, hub, and disc?

    Hi! I'd like to get another front wheel with a stud tire on it, so I could swap the tires according to the weather. The roads are icy around here. I tired to find a complete tire from the Internet with no luck. I found out that the rim is DT Swiss 545D. Does anyone know which spokes, hub, rim...

    Known Issues & Problems with Stromer Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Hi! My ST2 has not downloaded software updates at all during 3 months, even though the software is quite old. After contacting the dealer, Stromer diagnosed the bike remotely. They said that the display is faulty and needs to be replaced. The display communicates, but does not try to download...

    Stromer ST2 2017 vs 2018, advice needed

    I also asked my dealer, and they did not know any other differences than I previously mentioned. What I have understood, the motor power is not increased in 2018 model, only the way of measuring the power is changed, which leads to different number in technical specs. I've had the bike for a...

    Charging the battery off the bike, difference in battery duration?

    Hi! I charged the battery to 100% while the battery was in the bike, and after that, I rode to work, which was 50 km (31 mile) trip. I had 12% battery left. Then, I took the battery off the bike and charged it. When I got home, I had 37% left, even when I had rode similarly at same speed as the...

    Stromer ST2 2017 vs 2018, advice needed

    Thank you for your knowledge. The thing is, that the 55 km is very long commute to me, and I would like to go that as fast as I can. I rode @35 km/h most of the time. Few kilometers @40 km/h. I'm willing to pay for that time saving. Nearly two hour commutes are too long for me, and I should...

    Stromer ST2 2017 vs 2018, advice needed

    According to Stromer, the range with 814 WH battery is 50-150 km. So, I guess if you use full power and ride fast, it does not last much longer than 50 km. There's a video on Youtube, where someone has made a range test with full speed, the battery lasted 50,5 km. Maybe the battery performance...

    Stromer ST2 2017 vs 2018, advice needed

    Hi! I'm considering buying a Stromer. I got an offer for 2017 model with additional (yes, second) 983 wh battery with the same price as 2018 model with one 983 wh battery. The shop has only 2017 models in stock and they have 814 Wh batteries, which is not big enough for my commute. I took the...

    Assistance at higher speeds

    Thank you for your thoughts. That Gaadi tube looks interesting. I'll have to purchase one if I decide to go with rear hub motor. As I wrote earlier, I do not intend to go every day 64 miles. I go to office only 1-3 days per week and I'm purchasing the bike for a car replacement. It is hard to...

    Assistance at higher speeds

    Okay, good exercise can be understood in many ways. Riding a bike for 3-4 hours a day even with moderate effort is a good exercise for me :) I just contacted Riese & Muller shop here in Finland, and they said that they don't have any high speed models to test drive. What a pity. You are right...

    Assistance at higher speeds

    Thanks for your thoughts. The whole distance cannot be ridden at full speed, that's for sure. But I'd like to ride fast at least the parts where the roads are in good condition. The "Control Technology" concept of Riese & Muller got me convinced that the full suspension might be beneficial at...

    Assistance at higher speeds

    Hi! I'm looking for a bike for a daily commute of 32 miles one-way (64 miles per day). Approximately half of the commute is gravel road and half is asphalt. I've been studying about Riese & Muller bikes and especially Delite HS Rohloff, since it would have front and rear suspension, which would...
