I was not fan of where the assist levels are located the turbo levo (along the side of the down tube),so I invested in a garmin remote so that I could change the assist level from the handle bars. It worked fine except there was no visual of the assist level to be observed. I solve that problem by downloading a piece of Garmin software (for my Garmin 1000 Edge cycle computer) that picked up the visual of eco, trail, etc. as well as providing whatever else I chose to display on that screen (speed, distance, etc). The remaining button on the remote allowed me to move forwards and backwards thru different screens. I also found a beam rack that fit my seat tube while still allowing me to control the dropper and clearing the rear tire. Here are some links for same:

The question that begs to be asked. Why not buy a bike that you don't have to buy a Garmin remote and Garmin computer just to see assist level? Lots of them have an engineered display from the factory?
 
I have a Stromer ST-2 also. The Garmin does a really good job on both bikes and uploads wirelessly to my computer. So my only real investment was the remote for $89 and a bit of fiddling with the Garmin software (called the Company and they walked right through it). I'm not very keen about riding with a phone on my handlebars, so the Garmin bicycle computer just makes more sense to me.
