    Brose releases 48V system motor and a concept motor with an integrated stepless gear system

    Yep sure , go ahead and be skeptical all you want. I am happy that companies such as Brose, Valeo and Pinion are at least attempting something that many riders believe to be an elegant solution that has several advantages compared to convetionnal drivetrain tech. I am awaiting the delivery of a...

    Brose releases 48V system motor and a concept motor with an integrated stepless gear system

    come on man... you're smarter than this.... give it a rest. Stop bickering about my choice of words . You know perfectly well what I meant. It is beneath you. If they (the belts) work on motorcycles with combustion engines, electric motors with orders of magnitude more torque than any ebike...

    Replaced My Stromer ST2 S with an ST7

    Hi, I read somewhere (another european forum) that a special machine ( pump ?? )is required to bleed the Bluebrake ABS brakes . Hopefully your dealer is equipped with such a device. Maybe check out this thread. Use Google translate feature if you don't speak dutch...

    New Stromer flagship ST7

    Hi Abe, sorry to hear about your troubles. I imagine you may have already tried this but just in case ... Have you removed the battery for at least 10 minutes and restarted? This reset/ reboot sometimes helps when the bikes are acting up. Hope you're back riding ASAP.

    New Stromer flagship ST7

    As far as I know all Stromers are delivered with a side mirror as they are mandatory in Europe. In any case I've already purchased a different one as I find that the ones that fit on the ends of the handlebars widen too much the bike and are a nuisance when rolling the bike into my garage. oh...

    New Stromer flagship ST7

    Hey Abe ! Congrats on your new bike. I would definitely play with the brake sensitivity until you find the right balance that works for you. It's a little unnerving as I've always had it set at 100%, just like you , on my ST5; but I'm sure you'll figure it out. As far as the ride feel, I agree...

    Stromer regen braking?

    Umm yeah... point taken ! my bad. if you keep hitting the minus button it will activate the motor brake which will very drastically slow your descent, to the point where you don't need to pull the brake lever at all. There are several levels of intensity that can be chosen to suit the situation...

    Stromer regen braking?

    Hi, IMO regen braking should be considered/seen as a byproduct of direct drive tech . The tiny amount of energy re-injected into the battery is so negligible , it becomes anecdotal. Unless you live in the Swiss Alps and ride looong steeeep descents that actually re-charge significantly your...

    New Stromer flagship ST7

    Hi Abe, I did try to lift it and it is indeed very/too? heavy. No one is going to want to carry this bike more than a couple of feet. Bike repair stands are going to be a problem unless one has a pro bike shop type anchored to the floor. Toe hitch (Thule type) are also going to be a problem...

    New Stromer flagship ST7

    Hi, I had an opportunity to take an ST7 for a short ride yesterday. WOW! It is fast! The acceleration is surprisingly swift for such a heavy (moped like @Stefan Mikes ;)) bike. It's agile, and its huge torque and power allows one to pick up speed insanely fast. Good for putting space between...

    ST7 light?

    I went last week to the bike show in Belgium. Spoke to the head of sales for the Benelux ( Belgium , Netherlands and Luxembourg) and was told that production of the first Dark Platinum models would begin in March. Probable delivery of mine around mid march. Fingers crossed 🤞. I , unfortunately...

    New St2 w. belt drive - lots of vibrations on pedals and seat

    Hi, Fandomii, trust your gut. That's not normal. The mechanics is full of s*%t. I own an ST5 and can assure you that a propeerly setup , brand new bike should ride smoothly and quietly. Don't let that test ride representative. Ask to ride another ST2 or a different model and you'll see.
