Can you ride an e-bike in the rain?
This is one of our most frequently asked questions, thanks to the incredible amount of rain - and flooding! - we have had over the past 4-5 years!
In this video we cover:
- the big question...can you ride in the rain? (Let's save the suspense. It's a yes)
- What you can do and what you shouldn't do - covering what to know about your ebike and also touching on flood situations
- If you have to, some techniques for water crossings
- What you should do to look after your ebike after you have been out in the rain and through water
Rain doesn't necessarily mean you can't ride however hopefully with these tips it will be safer, more enjoyable and your e-bike will still be in good shape afterwards too.
