Hydra incoming...

[Merle Nelson]

I've been thinking about your bike and wondering when you would get it in hand. At least it's nice that it's close now.

I have to laugh as I got notice last Monday that my Hydra was due to arrive October 29…then October 30 and quickly October 31 (still says that on FedEx page). So I called FedEx and they told me it is due to arrive to my house today. About 15 minutes later I got the update below….

I DON’T THINK SO!!!!

Lol, Fedex is never accurate. My current arrival date says Thursday as it's just passing through Colorado. We'll see.

All, an update! No estimates for delivery, only map and location updates every 12 hours at 11-ish. I can honestly say, it has never been closer…

Mine has been stuck in Colorado for 2 days lol. I'm not expecting to get it by the Thursday date it says currently.

Please give us an update as soon as you get one.

If that were mine, and they would allow it, I would be so tempted to go meet them and pick it up

I can relate to what Barn Boy is going through. My UC Pro left WW just under two weeks ago and has bounced around almost half the states in the union.
It's very near Buffalo and hopefully will soon be on Canadian soil. Then it will probably sit in Canada customs for a week or two, before it's shipped across the country to the wet-west coast).

That's terrible. Near a straight shot if not a straight line has to be a more efficient way to get it to you. Customers pay a shipper for transit not for when you feel like it transit.

Pushkar called Monday, He says my bike will have 29x2.6 and DVO diamonds and topaz suspension set.

I really like the Brand WW.
Report when 'System Shutdown' occurs if it does when you ride your bike

I'm starting to believe Innotrace and X1 archon are entirely different.

Still a bit bummed mine won't have the DVO suspension! Hoping for no shutdown issues but I'll report back.

I thought there were three bikes and now a fourth that had a shut down issue not related to the battery pulling too many amps. Two of them, one being mine, had stripped wires were fixed. I’m not sure about the third. It sounds like you guys are saying this is now a much wider problem?

I hope not! I just keep hearing talk about it lol

if you search the posts you will find those 3 motors with the stripped wires were from a single Bafang motor lot more than six months ago and they were all fixed?

FedEx chronicles: Day 6

After 3 days of stagnation, package has moved from one suburb of Denver to another

 

[loamoaf]

This is pure agony. Even before I moved to the area FedEx has been horrible - hold an item at the warehouse for 3 full business days + a weekend before they hand it off to the post office literally 1.5 miles down the street from them for final delivery. I don't think I've had a FedEx shipment arrive less than a day late in the past 4 years. USPS on the other hand - at least where I'm at - is about 70/30 the package arrives at least a day early from original estimate - they are unstoppable & my mail always comes around lunch time like clockwork. I had FedEx deliver an ebike battery to a nearby pikcup location at a grocery store but then on the tracking showed they were sending it to a totally different location after being out for delivery the day before, I had to call them to figure out what was going on with it after it just showed being driven around for a few days.

 

[BarnBoy]

No doubt in my mind that using www.BikeFlights.com would have been a better choice for @pushkar. I have used them very successfully in the past for wheels. Other buddies have used them for frames…
All good, crazy times….

My UC Pro is in the process of crossing the border into Canada.
I hope Canadian customs don't sit on it for too long before allowing it to be shipped.

FedEx has done this crap to me literally with every shipment I've received from them in the last couple of years. Without fail, it gets stuck somewhere and arrives 2-7 days late lol. I was hoping I would receive it before the weekend because next week is rather busy but who knows at this point.

Here it is... 'time passes very slowly when one is waiting for something to happenif that is the only thing one is thinking about'

What the heck, no update for you???

 

[kwseattle]

It made it out of CO and it's getting closer

 

[loamoaf]

Funny enough I've got a FedEx package on the way right now, says it's coming in tomorrow when it's in Nebraska ~1500 miles away. Let's race and see who's gets here first!

I just hope whoever is transporting it is getting enough sleep
