    Hydra Fenders

    I really like this front fender. Anyone have experience with how much rain/muck would be blocked by this style? I know it won’t keep you dry but maybe 50% reduction…?

    My Impression of the Luna Mighty Mini Display (Bafang 500C) on the Hydra

    Your connector look like this? Luna has no pics of it.

    Hydra as a commuter?

    Agree, going with ergon grips and salsa bend bar to get a little bit more upright. My aim is to not be super hunched over.

    Hydra as a commuter?

    Looks nice and clean, everything in easy reach. How would you rate ride comfort? Are you in a fairly aggressive riding position?

    Hydra as a commuter?

    Fairly certain I've seen shots of people pulling mid 30's with their Hydra. Yes this coild be a deal breaker if you need to carry a lot of weight. Recommended max on the rack I'm looking at is 25 lbs. Luckily that far exceeds my needs. Also agree on fenders, MTB fenders don't look as clean...

    Hydra as a commuter?

    Based on the info in this thread I think it has some potential so I'm giving it a go. The Tetra rack looks like a good fit if you only need to carry a lighter load (10-20 lbs). Also looks like there are some good options for relatively sleek fenders. The main drawback for me is the loss of belt...

    Hydra as a commuter?

    I'm very familiar with WW commuter options. I signed up for (and paid in full) the Helios about 15 months ago. There is a bit more of a delay on that now so my plan is to outfit the Hydra as a commuter and swap frames to Helios when that becomes available. This will be my very first ebike and...

    My Impression of the Luna Mighty Mini Display (Bafang 500C) on the Hydra

    @Cuz Vinny thanks for this! Do you know if the display can control lights integrated with the battery? I don't see a light on your Hydra but maybe one off your other bikes do.

    Hydra as a commuter?

    This is an interesting idea. I was thinking stem risers to get the same effect.

    These look like a good candidate for 29” commuters, the “SUV” tire, available in 29x2.6 https://www.schwalbetires.com/bike_tires/off-road_tires/Johnny_Watts_604

    Is it doable to use your feet to get them out or do you have to use hands?

    @Jayaznpride that looks pretty slick. Where did you get it? Any chance you can post a pic of it folded up?
