Is my Bonnell 775 waterproof?Updated 3 months ago

Bonnell 775 bikes are weather-resistant and built to handle any adventure, but like all high-performance bikes, they’re not completely waterproof.

Water Resistance Features:

• 775 AM Battery Protection: Equipped with an injection-molded rubber waterproof cover and a durable aluminum casing to handle tough terrain and unpredictable weather. Ensure all covers are fully closed before washing or riding in wet conditions.
• Waterproof On/Off Button: All 775 batteries include a sealed power button. Always turn your bike off before washing and at the end of every ride.
• Corrosion Resistance: The chromoly front triangle undergoes ED coating before powder coating for added protection. A small drain hole at the bottom bracket helps manage any water buildup inside the frame.

Care Tips for Wet Conditions:

• Avoid full submersion in water (e.g., deep puddles or river crossings).
• Use a low-pressure wash when cleaning to prevent water from forcing its way into components.
• Dry your bike properly after wet rides to maintain longevity.

With proper care, your Bonnell 775 is ready to take on whatever the elements throw your way.
