Has anyone swapped from the twosie to onesie shifter? Kindernay will only sell the complete onsie unit with actuator, which is very frustrating that they will force you spend $450 just to change the shifter. Especially since I already paid the premium for the XIV over the VII when it was available.

I'm happy with my Hydra but the Hydra frame is almost identical to the Dengfu E10, just with a different rear shock mounting point. Not sure how you can say one is ripping off another.

I have been having the engine shutdown issues and noticed that the contacts on both batteries I have been using look as though there has been some sort of spark at certain points of contact. Does anyone elses batteries look like this? It doesn't look like scraping from removing / adding the...

What is the spider? How will it look on inside vs. outside?

I have the same issue on my Hydra with a Kindernay. I thought it might be due to the small diameter cog on the rear but see that it happens with a full derailleur system as well. I put some 3m vinyl protection tape on the spot but that's not a long-term solution. Aesthetics aside, over time I...

What is everyone's experience with battery performance? Do you get consistent power down to low battery %? I have been tracking % on the bluetooth app and after 50% power seems to drop off quite noticeably. Yesterday, I got about 18-20 miles on city streets in level 1-3 (mainly 1 and 2). I had...

FWIW I have a Kindernay (picked up early Oct.) and have had zero issues.

Yes. I am showing 0 for all protection items even though I have gotten various versions of the shutdown with this battery. I am also seeing total voltage of 56.02 V even though the battery is showing charged 100%. I thought voltage at full charge is supposed to be around 58.7 V, which is what...

That's very useful. Do you know if the "protections" stats are reset once you plug the battery back in to re-charge? I'm seeing 0 for everything, but the battery is re-charging now. Do you find the "total voltage" stat a better indicator of how much battery life you have left?

And it actually connects to your phone wirelessly via Bluetooth? I recall seeing some bafang motors Bluetooth enabled but I didn’t understand how.

Are these BMS readings from the Archon X1 tool?

That's a good point of comparison. I have a feeling it shouldn't be cutting out like this but only have others that have reported similar issues to compare with. Before this latest batch of Hydra's, I didn't anyone posting about cutouts, other than the wire issue WW ran to ground.

I'm interested in any cutouts you experience going forward. I also haven't felt like I've been pushing the bike particularly hard when it cuts out but being a new owner am trying to understand the limits of the power / system. There are a few different explanations I've heard, but not all are...

I am interested in your experience with the motor cutting out / shutting down going forward. The complete shutdown problem that was remedied before appears to have been from too thin wire insulation that allowed electricity to jump from the internal wires to the engine casing with high current...

I have had both issues. When I first got the bike, a few times it completely shut off. I had to wait and turn the whole system back on. More recently, it has also stopped providing power but did not shut down. In this case, I wait a second or two and start pedaling again.

Nice looking bike. I'm curious what your experience is with the engine cutting out. I have had the system completely shut down and stop providing power but remain on, in which case power resumes after I stop applying power temporarily. I was out today and it happened a few times. It was not...

The throttle is nowhere near as powerful as with the pedal assist and I really can't think of a situation where I need or want it. I don't think it's unrestricted but I'm not positive - I base that on the fact that lvl 3 and up feels much more powerful than the throttle. I'd just rather be...

Has anyone had issues with the battery locking mechanism? Does your battery "click" in to provide confirmation it's locked? Mine does not and it isn't clear if it's secured. Not sure if you can adjust the locking pin.

I picked mine up from WW this past weekend. I was able to ride around today for a bit and initial impressions are excellent. I'm 6 ft and got a large frame. It is a big bike but the frame fits well. I ride with the dropper post almost fully extended (maybe a couple of inches left to extend) so...

This is the setup I ordered. The frame was painted the wrong color but I should be picking it up next week hopefully. For now, I'll be riding it in NYC so largely urban riding. The Fox shocks are overkill (I swapped the air shock for a coil-over) but will be taking it on light trails as well and...
