Origin
Stromer is the pioneering Swiss speed-pedelec brand (founded 2009, now part of the myStromer AG group near Bern). The ST3 launched in 2018 as the mid-tier model of the ST family, slotting between the ST1 and the flagship ST5. It introduced the connected OMNI platform with a built-in SIM card, bringing always-on GPS tracking, anti-theft Smartlock and over-the-air firmware updates to a 45 km/h commuter bike.
