Has someone already received a Hydra with a small frame, 27.5" wheel and 3" tires?

If so would you be so kind as to confirm what is the Height between the ground and the top of the saddle when in its Lowest Position?
Do mention if you have a seat-post or not, as that usually adds a couple of inches.

Also, if you can confirm the stand over height (ground to the lowest part of the Top tube), that would be great.

Thank you

I ordered the same configuration today so I can't measure the saddle to the ground. However, I was told the stand over height is 24".
 
Did the husband and wife couple with matching Hydras in Porsche Grey have a small?

They were headed to vacation with them and I haven't seen them post again after picture and initial post but @ might get their attention. ((They picked them up in person.)
 
Cathartic Release has the small Crushed Orchid. It was being built next to mine so I think/hope he will have it soon. It all depends on parts availability.
 
May I ask the same information for the Hydra Medium Frame with 27.5 x 3 wheel and tires?

Sorry if they are duplicate
the dropper is 1 1/4” above the low west setting.the seat 36”-41 1/4” so subtract and lowest setting should be 34 3/4”. 30 1/2” to top of seat post clamp. There is exactly 2” difference between the large and medium. BB center height 13 1/2”. Medium and large are the same stand over Height. At 16” back from headset stand over is 31” which is about as far forward as I ever stand so you might get down to 30” closer to seat post.

lowest seat setting should be 34 3/4”. 30”-31” standover
 
Yes, appreciated. Actually I wouldn't have even thought to ask for that info scrambler, so I appreciate you asking too.

Those measurements for the large give me good info to compare to my current bike and see if there is any way the large frame could work well for me.
 
I am 6 feet 2 1/2 inches with a 32 inch inseam so a lot of torso. I have the dropper all the way down on the large and I may be raising it 1/3“- 1/2”. I would say the frame fits very well with the long reach.
 
Any one has yet received a Hydra small frame with 27.5" x 2.8" wheel tires and could confirm the 24" stand Over height mentioned previously.
Measured IN FRONT of the saddle (when you step down forward), and not at the seat tube attachment, so as to be realistic.
Thanks

Still waiting for my Hydra Small, like you I hope the 24" is the true stand over height measured in front of the saddle.
 
My large is 29“ at the lowest spot medium is 27 1/2“ at the lowest spot so I would guess the small is not going to be much under 26“ at the lowest spot
