    That’s the problem. Getting anything from China nowadays is difficult. I’d love to see WW move the frame production to the USA. I bought a Vintage Electric Scrambler and it shipped within a week of me placing my order.

    Lessons Learned After Owning A Fat Hydra’s For A While

    IMO the sweet setup for the Fat Hydra are 27.5 X 80mm wheels and 27.5X3.8 tires.

    Lessons Learned After Owning A Fat Hydra’s For A While

    After owning my Fat Hydra for a while I thought I’d share some of the things that work and don’t work on the bike. 1. Super wide wheels don’t work well. Stick with an 80mm wide rim to be able to use all the gears on your cassette. I have 90mm Nextie Carbon Mags with a 26X4.8 tire the chain rubs...

    What derailleur is on the bike? On both of my Hydra bikes I changed the chain to a 11spd KMC Ebike chain. Much better quality and a lot stronger. Also check the tension on the chain. Has to be tight enough so it stays on the cogs.

    Watt Wagons Critical Product Availability Status

    My two Watt Wagons Hydra’s. Both bikes have performed flawlessly. Only had to replace a defective Magura rear brake which was replaced by Magura no questions asked. I know the delivery times for the bikes are exceptionally long now but if you can be patient it will be worth the wait.

    I’d give them a call. My impression is they only deal with manufacturers and not individual retail customers. You could try requesting from WW that they use this shipping method.

    https://www.kitzuma.com/ Watt Wagons should look into using these guys for shipping their bikes. My Vintage Electric Scrambler is being shipped this way.

    To me it just seems to be the same people that immediately jump in and bad mouth WW whenever someone has a problem or concern. It’s really getting old at this point.

    HYDRA CONVERTED FOR STREET USE

    Eventually I will swap to a Fox fork. Looking at their new Ebike line of forks.

    HYDRA CONVERTED FOR STREET USE

    Look at the fork on the Manitou website. Its the way they designed the fork. If you put the bash guard forward like you say then the brake and wheel mounts will be backwards.

    HYDRA CONVERTED FOR STREET USE

    Nope, that’s Manitou design. Look at the Mattoc Pro on their website.

    Fox forks are orange, that’s their signature color.

    HYDRA CONVERTED FOR STREET USE

    I’d actually like a 50mm wide wheel to flatten out the profile and make the tire a bit wider. However it looks good as is and I simply can’t justify the cost for the minimal improvement.
