    Watch as we put the Ramblas MTB bike to the ultimate test! The Aventon Ramblas is rated IP67. This means that it is sealed from dust or water. IP67 means that you can have this bike submerged in 3 feet of water for up to 30 min with no damage. Today, we test that theory.

    After washing (or submerging) IMMEDIATELY push your bike and lightly clamp down on the brakes to dry the rotors. If not they almost instantly form rust like oxidation that ruins the pads the next time you ride.

      Good info to know. I have ridden this bike since this video. All is good. Although, I did take it to my local bike shop to get the sand out of the pads. Thanks for the input!

    Definitely a relevant test. last year while riding my fat bike, I came up to what is usually an empty creek bed. This time, there was what I assumed was a couple inches of water in it. Ehhh, no big deal and I hit it pretty fast and stopped like a jet landing on an aircraft carrier. SURPISE! The creek was 12" deep and I almost fell sidewise but quickly recovered. Which was great because my smartphone attached to my handlebars would NOT have been happy. So it's good to see, that if I do the same bonehead thing with my Ramblas, that it should be fine

    I just discovered you, Scott...and I'm glad I did!!
    This test was VERY impressive and speaks incredibly well for Aventon. We're looking at buying a couple of Aventure.2s in a few months and your videos have only lent credibility to our search.
    The way you reacted when you pulled her out of the water tells me that this is YOUR bike...not a loaner from Aventon. Did I guess right?
    Thanx again, man!! I'll be tuning in for more!!!

    • @scotthardesty
      @scotthardesty  5 місяців тому +1

      I'm glad you found me! Yes, all the bikes I review are mine. They are not loaners from companies as I refuse to do a review like that. I would not advise you try this with your Aventure 2 as it will die. My Aventure 2 saw this review and asked me to please not do this to her as she will die. hahaha

    • @scotthardesty

      I cleaned it up and took it the bike shop for repair. I have since done a commuter video (editing it now) where I take it thru all kinds of tests. It will be up next week. But no issues.
