    Delite Rohloff HS with GX Option

    I had the same leaking experience with the Kindernay XIV and went through three of them before converting my existing bike to a derailleur and adding electronic shifting with an Archer Components D1X Trail.

    Delite Rohloff HS with GX Option

    While I know that purpose-built bikes are always going to be the best for specific kinds of terrain (i.e. mountain vs road), I've become enamored with the Delite and wanted to ask opinions of any owners. I really enjoy riding on the singletrack trails near my home, but I do spend more time on...

    I watched the whole thing. He’s selling WW now and is a dealer.

    I’m not sure it’s that simple. I went through three of them before giving up and one was sent back to Norway to be fixed and still came back leaking.

    Watt Wagons Ultimate Commuter 2 rides 175 miles now 1075 miles, more than 2 rides

    They have two battery options for the same unit. The new battery shifts faster than the base battery, but there is a tradeoff with lower battery life in that you'll have to recharge after about 24 hours of use. With the batteries that came shipped with mine there were two batteries about the...

    Watt Wagons Ultimate Commuter 2 rides 175 miles now 1075 miles, more than 2 rides

    I’ve not really noticed much of a delay connecting the remote to the shifter. I turn the shifter on then hold a remote button down for about a second and it connects. My experience with my iPhone was good. I watched their video first which definitely helped.

    Watt Wagons Ultimate Commuter 2 rides 175 miles now 1075 miles, more than 2 rides

    I’ve got the Archer and it’s been great. Easy to install, setup, and tweak. Shifting is smooth and accurate. I recently updated to their new batteries which shift 50% faster.

    Those cables are too thick to be routed internally. If they could hide them they would.

    The "UNOFFICIAL" Hydra FAQ thread....

    Correct, it is a tensioner and is needed on a full suspension bike. I went through 3 different Kindernay hubs on my Hydra before calling it a day due to oil leaks. It would be fine for days and then all of a sudden there would be oil everywhere on the floor under my bike. It was replaced with...

    Hydra Shipping Damage

    What's crazy is that my bike wasn't packaged poorly at all. The shipping process can vary greatly just depending on what employee happens to handle your box. Sometimes you're lucky, but sometimes you get the ones who disregard words like fragile in huge letters on a box and they still throw it...

    Hydra Shipping Damage

    I encountered shipping damage as well. My damage was to the handlebar which had a small dent and paint scratched off, the WW logo on the head tube got torn up and rubbed off in spots, and the handlebar also impacted the shock which scratched and rubbed the paint off a spot on it. I purchased a...

    I think you’re exactly right, they’re shipped without air to better fit In the box.

    Archon X1 Programming Thread (questions and experiences)

    If you plug in your cable and hook it to your bike so that it knows it's connected to something, open device manager on your computer and find it and update your driver. I believe I also saw the updated driver available for download on the Innotrace website at one time, but it's all in German...

    Trevor Riemsdyk, NHL, Stanley cup winner, endorsing Watt Wagons !!!

    That is pretty much exactly what I was thinking just with a different color for my bike because I wanted a darker gray to offset the titanium color on my bike. Can you provide any information regarding cost?
