User interface
Power button
The power button is located on the bottom of the
top tube below the touchscreen.
The power button has the following functions:
• Switch on
• Change from shortcut screen to ride screen/2/3
• Change from ride screen to shortcut screen
• Change from any point in the menu to the
shortcut screen
Touchscreen
The ST2 is equipped with a resistive touchscreen.
This means that the touchscreen does not react to
contact like capacitive touchscreens, but rather to
slight pressure from the finger and can thus also
be readily operated with gloves. With light pres-
sure on the touchscreen, you navigate through the
various menus and can change the ride screen.
Controller
Using the controller, you can control the most im-
portant functions of the ST2 while riding without
taking your hands off the handlebars.
USB charging socket
Is the battery in your smartphone empty? – no
problem. The ST2 is equipped with a USB charg-
ing socket. Connect your smartphone to recharge
the battery. The charging socket is located on the
front by the daytime light and is covered with a
rubber lip.
L1e e-bike
The ST2 offers motor assistance up to 45 km/h or
28 mph and a continuous rated power of 500 watts.
The ST2 is thus legally a light motorcycle in class
L1e with regard to Directive 2002/2004/EC. There
is an obligation to register and insure vehicles of
this category in most countries. Inform yourself of
the related regulations to this class of vehicle in
your country before riding for the first time.
The permissible gross vehicle weight of the ST2
is 140 kg. The gross vehicle weight is the sum of
the vehicle weight (27 kg), the rider’s weight and
luggage.
The Pedelec and S-Pedelec/E-Bikes chapter in the
accompanying general BMC Operating manual
provides you with additional notes on the use of
and special regulations for e-bikes.
Riding
Before riding for the first time
This manual contains specific information
about your STROMER ST2. Carefully read this user
guide. Improper use of the ST2 may lead to prod-
uct defects and personal injuries.
Be sure to also read the accompanying gen-
eral BMC Operating manual before riding for the
first time.
If you allow your ST2 to be used by third
parties, then please provide them with this user
guide.
Switch on
To switch on, press the power button.
If your ST2 has been locked with a PIN, you
must enter the Stromer PIN after switching on so
that you can use it (see Theft protection, page 08).
Switch off
1. Press the power button to access the shortcut
screen.
2. In the shortcut screen, select OFF.
Sleep mode
If you do not switch off your ST2, it switches to
sleep mode after a period of inactivity of 5 min-
utes. The sensor technology remains active in
sleep mode. The system wakes up on its own as
soon as you move your ST2.
Alternatively, you can wake up the ST2 using the
power button.
Always switch the ST2 off using the touch-
screen if you want to prevent it from switching
itself on.
Taking off
The motor assistance kicks in as soon as you start
pedaling and have gathered a little momentum.
The motor assistance of the ST2 adapts itself to
your riding style. The harder you pedal, the more
assistance you get from your motor.
For your safety, the motor of the ST2 does
not start to run until you have reached a mini-
mum speed. However, always keep a brake en-
gaged before placing the first foot on the pedal.
The strong acceleration takes some getting used
to. Uncontrolled taking off can lead to a crash or
to serious injury in traffic or on a loose surface.
Higher motor-assisted speeds and the ad-
ditional weight may take some getting used to.
Practice the operation of and riding with your ST2
in a calm and safe place before using it on public
roads.
