in view of the annoying rain lately, is it true that bikes exposed to rain (always parked in non sheltered carpark) spoils very much faster?

depend on how old yr bike. bikes are built to be exposed to elements. tts why after u ride in rain it will still be working. but if u let it be exposed to wet dry cycles the electronic will suffer from the water vapor corrosion. so... either get a bike cover or just wipe yr bike dry after rain

[epidemic41]

anw... just chill. nus not easy to find covered carpark anw

Rainy days just relax and ride. Slippery road everywhere. Anyway those $40 upwards raincoat worth it or not? My $20 raincoat got hole already.

This is true. Best is to park at mscp or put cover. Wipe also cannot reach the critical areas, unless got hairdryer or something haha.

i find that the cheaper ones like pro racing or smth like tt are more worth money. they always say arai thick arai good. but in the end if u dun maintain (which im sure most of us dont), they leak water just as quickly. haha by not maintaining i mean you'll just chuck it in the box or sun it for awhile then put back to use alr

[epidemic41]

or just use army raincoat. confirm good

not sure either cuz i dun maintain. wash with warm soapy water then air dry? prevent smell and cracking of the waterproof material. rain has some acidic content i think? maybe others can share. but if u buy cheap raincoat. abuse it also will last about 1 yr
