It can occasionally be read in forums that the Stromer is a fair-weather bike and that there are problems in rainy weather. This statement is not generally valid. Bicycles are not submarines by nature and are never waterproof. However, for a bicycle that is advertised as a commuter bike, resilience against rain and spray water must also be ensured. Therefore, care must be taken in the design to ensure that plug connections as well as electrical and electronic components are adequately protected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unlike with a normal bicycle, (S-)Pedelecs have a lot of electrical and electronic components, as well as wiring. In addition to the frame, brakes, drivetrain, motor, etc., these components are particularly sensitive to water and moisture. If they are not adequately protected, corrosion, contact problems, or even short circuits will lead to malfunctions or the bicycle failing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stromer-Bikes bieten ein sch\u00f6nes Design, keine Frage. Die sog. Inframe-Verkabelung und das Inframe-Design (Akku) vermitteln ein optisch aufger\u00e4umtes Bild. Vor Einfallstoren f\u00fcr Wasser und Feuchtigkeit sch\u00fctzen aber auch diese nicht. Kommen konstruktive M\u00e4ngel hinzu, wird die Alltagstauglichkeit infrage gestellt. Und davon hat sich Stromer in der Vergangenheit einige geleistet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anbei sind Problemstellen aufgelistet, die in der Werkstatt, in spezifischen Foren sowie in sozialen Medien h\u00e4ufig auftauchen. Die Links in Klammern verweisen direkt auf entsprechende Artikel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A few constructive issues regarding moisture and water have been resolved during the model development through improved design or revised components (e.g., down tube cover).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
