Rain

Hello from NY, we recently got an Aventon Abound and were advised not to cycle in the heavy rain because the electric parts are not fully waterproof.
Did you experience riding Aventon Aboiund in heavy rain or keep it under persistent rain for long time? Is there any accessories you could reccomend to cover the electric parts?
Thank you so much!

Congrats on your new bike! I have also heard of the displays going wonky on Aventon after hard rains. I haven't experienced it myself, but worked on several customers bikes that needed a new display.

Thank you!

My Bosch display used to get water in it until I bought clear cover for it, are they available for yours?

Thank you so much! I will check, but how about the other electric parts of the bike, like the engine and the battery: do they need to be coverd from rain?
Thanks,
Nikola

I've had no issues with the other Bosch stuff. I did find my head light failed a few times due to water ingress but it's a different one to what you will be running.
