The STEEREON C30 model has a maximum design speed of 20 km/h (helmet-free), 25 km/h (helmet-required) or 32 km/h (helmet-required).
Depending on your riding style, terrain and rider weight, you can cover up to 40 km on one battery charge (556 Wh). With the 655 Wh, you can travel up to 50 km on one battery.
With the additional range extender (second battery on the top tube), the range can be increased to up to 100 km.
STEEREON C20: approx. 21 kg.
STEEREON C30: approx. 22 kg.
The permissible total weight (driver + vehicle + luggage) is 150 kg.
The maximum payload (rider weight + luggage) is therefore approx. 128 kg.
It takes approx. 4 hours (556 Wh) or 5 hours (655 Wh) to fully recharge a completely empty battery. The range extender can be charged in parallel with a second charger.
The battery can be charged at any standard socket using the charger supplied. In addition to charging on the vehicle itself, the battery can also be removed separately using a key and charged individually.
The maximum climbing ability is approx. 20%. At maximum load, the climbing ability is still approx. 15%.
There is no service obligation for STEEREON as, unlike a bicycle, there are no service-intensive components (e.g. chain or gears). In the operating instructions, you will find a table that shows you which components you should subject to a regular visual and functional check.
A repair can be carried out in various ways:
STEEREON is permitted on public roads.
The STEEREON C20 model is approved in accordance with the German Ordinance on Small Electric Vehicles (ABE) and may be legally driven on German roads.
The STEEREON C30 model has EU type approval (vehicle category: L1-eB | moped) and may be legally driven on European roads.
All variants require at least motor vehicle liability insurance. Proof is provided via an insurance sticker (C20) or an insurance license plate (C30).
Depending on the variant selected, there are different legal framework conditions for the user.
The STEEREON C20 model may be ridden anywhere where a bicycle may be ridden.
The STEEREON C30 model with maximum speeds of 20 km/h or 25 km/h may be ridden anywhere where a moped or moped is permitted. Within built-up areas, only cycle paths with a "moped-free" sign may be used. If these are not available, you must ride on the road. Outside built-up areas, cycle paths without "moped-free" markings may also be used.
The STEEREON C30 model with a top speed of 32 km/h may officially only be driven on the road.
Safety is one of the main pillars of product development. We are guided by the highest safety standards and norms within the vehicle classes. In addition, STEEREON is tested and approved by a recognized technical service, independent institutes and by us.
STEEREON has an electronic immobilizer that you can unlock using a code. We also offer a lock in our online store that allows you to lock your STEEREON anywhere, just like a bicycle.
If you choose the STEEREON C20 model, you are not legally required to wear a safety helmet, but we recommend that you wear one at all times. This should be at least a certified bicycle helmet. For safety reasons, however, we would advise you to wear an S-pedelec helmet that meets the requirements of NTA 8776. These meet higher safety requirements than classic bicycle helmets, which are usually tested in accordance with EN 1078.
If you opt for the 20 km/h version of the STEEREON C30 model, you are not legally required to wear a helmet, but we recommend that you wear one at all times. This should be at least a certified bicycle helmet. For safety reasons, however, we would advise you to wear an S-pedelec helmet that meets the requirements of NTA 8776. These meet higher safety requirements than classic bicycle helmets, which are usually tested in accordance with EN 1078.
If you decide to buy the 25 km/h or 32 km/h version of the STEEREON C30 model, you should bear in mind that only helmets that meet the requirements for motorcycle helmets (in accordance with UN Regulation No. 22) are permitted. There are some helmets available on the market that meet these requirements and look similar to a jet helmet or bicycle helmet. We have two suitable helmets in our store. If you have any questions, we will be happy to advise you.
All STEEREON models are vehicles subject to compulsory insurance as soon as you want to use them on public roads. The law distinguishes between two different vehicle classes and therefore two different insurance classes.
The model STEEREON C20 is approved as a small electric vehicle. The insurer will provide you with a small sticker for this purpose, which is valid until February 28 of the following year.
The STEEREON C30 model is approved as an L1-eB class vehicle. This corresponds to compulsory insurance as a light moped (20 km/h variant), as an ordinary moped (25 km/h variant) or as an ordinary scooter (32 km/h). You will receive a small license plate from the insurer, which is valid until 28.02. of the following year.
You can take out insurance with various insurers online or at their sales offices.
In cooperation with Zurich Insurance, we also offer customized insurance packages. You can find more information on this here: www.steereon.com/insurance
