Are EWHIP e-bikes waterproof? Can I ride in the rain?
Our e-bikes are water-resistant, which means they're fine for riding in light rain or on wet roads. However, they’re not fully waterproof or designed to be submerged in water. When cleaning your bike, steer clear of pressure washers or high-powered jets—use a damp cloth instead.
How long does the battery last before I need a new one?
EWHIP runs on a high-quality Samsung battery that’s built to go the distance—expect around 700 to 1000 full charge cycles. That gives you a few solid years of rides, depending on how often you're out there.
Just like your phone, the battery will slowly lose some capacity over time. But with proper care, you’re looking at about 4–5 years before needing a replacement—if you're riding a few times a week.
