    Hydra in (semi)gloss black (Cerakote H109)

    The battery capability changes with state of charge so they are hard to match. To be honest I think Pushkar should ship these with much lower power settings and let buyers adjust it up to preference.

    Have you seen the revised Helios?

    I’m curious what options you were talking about. A friend of mine has an RM full suspension with Bosch and a belt drive. He is however always jealous of my Hydra. I have ridden a turbo levo as well. My overall take is the standard European spec EMTB are probably more trouble free and you can...

    Hydra Battery Charger

    if you want to go fast you’re going to use a lot of battery. I purposely ride in echo one and two and I can get 30 miles of trail riding. Eco 2 is really pretty darn fast. Compared to a Turbo echo 2 on the hydra is more powerful than boost on the Levo. if I want to go fast sometimes I’m only...

    DVO Topaz T3 Rear Shock Setup

    Our atmosphere is 70% nitrogen. Common wisdom is there is a small amount of moisture in standard compressed air along with the nitrogen molecules being slightly larger than the hydrogen or oxygen that is in atmosphere. So you gain a little less oxidation and it will retain pressure longer.

    Did anybody mullet their Hydra?

    If you’re just riding on on the street have you considered a Hardtail like the Crosstour with a suspension seat post. . 2.8 inch supermoto’s have a very soft ride. Or you could step up to a 4” Street fat tire. I love my Hydras for riding the trails and fire roads but with 6 inches of travel in...

    Hydra in (semi)gloss black (Cerakote H109)

    I know with the derailleur having problems with the larger sprocket it’s just out of adjustment. Mine was doing that the other day. Apparently the cable stretched. I’m not sure about the smaller sprockets. Whether you order the bike at 1000 or 2300 W it’s really all about programming. if you...

    Hydra in (semi)gloss black (Cerakote H109)

    I think what is happening is you are simply over loading the battery. When it begins to draw too many amps the BMS will shut down. Pushkar‘s settings are very high for climbing hills. On a steep hill I personally never go above echo 3 and keep the RPM high. Echo 3bis already pulling more than...

    Did anybody mullet their Hydra?

    I think if you buy 29“ports you will have no problem switching back to a 27.5”but my understanding is 27.5”Forks will not fit a 29” I look forward to hearing from you how it works. It will raise your bottom bracket slightly. This will make the bike a little harder to balance but on the other...

    Hydra in (semi)gloss black (Cerakote H109)

    You will definitely want to get into the program and customize to your liking. That’s one of the really nice things about these bikes, they are totally customizable Once you get the hang of it it’s very easy. The amount of time it runs after you stop petaling I believe can also be limited.

    Video piece on WW

    I have a suspicion that’s an M600 bike. I had a conversation with Pushkar months ago that he was bringing in one bike for testing but didn’t have very high hopes. There are also controller issues. He was trying to make a bike with a lower and more centered weight distribution. I have the first...

    Pics of places you ride your Hydra

    This is called dragons back. It’s on the way up to the James Andros Bench from Bella Vista Canyon. Steep, loose over hard tight switchbacks. One time I made all but four of them without touching the ground. That’s still my best but I hope one day to get them all.

    ZachDDs, I agree with most of what you said except 2 things. Pushkar did not take the money and use it to build Hydra’s. It was mostly spent on R&D for the Helios. This seems to be the one thing that escapes people who have never tried to prototype something. It costs a horrendous amount of...

    The owner of the business in the shop working on Saturday. I’ll never fault something who keeps moving forward despite hurdles and road blocks. From my first conversation with Pushkar in September of 2019 I knew who he was. Pushkar 👍👍

    Helios refund

    Neither of the above comments is very helpful. Pushkar posted an apology, took responsibility and has a plan to get onlineAddys money back to him. This is where social media really goes awry all too fast. Everyone needs to take a deep breath and think about the reality of the situation. How do...
