range. It’s rain-proof and offers
200-degree visibility. Rear safety
lighting is via a Busch & Müller
Toplight Mini taillight.
There’s a sturdy rack on the
back for attaching cargo, along
with front and rear fenders to
help keep the puddle splash
away. All of this is standard on
most Stromer bikes. Normal and
step-through frames are available in various sizes to ;t riders
from 5-foot- 4 to over 6-foot- 2.
WHO IT’S
MADE FOR?
The ST1 X is a perfect com-
muter bike. If you’re going to
ride in traf;c, the 28-mph speed
pedelec is safer in traf;c and
will help you get to your desti-
nation quicker without sweating.
The Kevlar-belted tires will help
prevent you from getting ;ats
from all the stuff you’ll encoun-
ter on the road.
The ST1 X has great range,
and with the largest battery
option, it has epic range, so
you’d think it’d be a great touring bike; however, the lack of
any suspension can make for a
very harsh extended ride, unless
you ride on perfect roads.
THE RIDE
Throwing a leg over, it feels
like any other Stromer—straight,
comfortable bars ;tted with
ergonomic grips with nicely laid-out controls. It looks and feels
like a Stromer—well made and
solid.
