I havent ridden in the rain. But The wheels are sturdy and would be able to handle all terrain.

The information sheet that came with the scooter says not to use it in wet conditions. I think it's because the wheels can slip on wet cement.

Hi There - We've tried them all and this one is an amazing design. Hands down the most forgiving scooter for balance and coordination. Have fun...

I wouldn't recommend it. I have 2 and they both had spokes that broke within first few uses. Rain would probably make it worse.

Not a waterproof system. Why would you want to ride this or any open vehicle in the rain. I have a motorcycle. totally capable of driving in the rain. however, When it rains, I use the car.

YES It can be used in the rain, however I try to save it for sun protection, and use other umbrellas when it rains/storms/blows, as a caution so I don't risk having the Coolibar blow inside out or get torn when getting in and out of the car. Just because it is pricey for an an umbrella, we save its use for sun protection, when walking, which it does!! for a few years, without any problems.

I use mine outside every year. I would not recommend it being left out in the rain however as the water would get directly to the motor.

I have ridden in the rain with no problem. If you leave your bike outside for long, I suggest you unsnap the computer unit and bring it inside. That feature works very easily.

I live in Coastal Georgia and it rains here a lot. My daughter rides it daily and has never had a problem. That being said she does not ride through large puddles. It's a great product!

I have ridden under light and heavy rain and it works properly! But I avoided pushing the buttons... just in case!

I wouldn't take it out in a heavy downpour. I have had difficulty with this machine it just stopped working and when i got on to the company i bought it off they didn't want to know me. All in all I'd stay away from this product and look at a different model maybe

I only use it on the road not off road. But I do jump of things. The water I have used it in the rain. Hope this helps..

No. it's not water-resistant. I rode it under heavy rains and had not problem at all. As long as it's not submerged in the water and should be ok.

Water is bad for the scooter. Check with the store for details. I wouldn't do it.

It's generally not safe to ride in the rain. So while I'm happy to respond - my experience is limited. I have been caught in the rain, with the light, and it worked perfectly. It's important to note that I was too aggressive with the rubber USB cover the second or third time I charged the light... and it popped off. My plan was to replace it - but I've been just too busy to get to that "C" list item. In spite of the exposed USB, the light re-charged flawlessly. This is a good value - several friends purchased the same light based on my experience and first hand observations. The charge lasts a long time and the unit is powerful, but not bulky. Good luck and be safe out there. It's generally not safe to ride in the rain. So while I'm happy to respond - my experience is limited.

Very well. We live in the Atlanta area and get lots of rain. We use our truck to haul a lot of stuff and have really enjoyed the BakFlip. You will get a few drops around sometimes. In general, it's really pretty good. I'd say water resistant and almost water proof. We depend on it and it works great!

I can't truly answer your question. Personally, my logic tells me, I would be taking an enormous mistake by using ANY piece of electric equipment while it was raining. To big of a chance of an electrical shock. So, no I would not use it in the rain. Doesn't mean that it can't be done though.

This scooter can sustain light drizzle to moderate sprinkle, any more than that may damage the electronic controller. Pretty much precipitation that may cause moisture to seep through the plastic deck is a no no.
