Will this bike rust if left outside in the elements? I will have to store it outdoors.

I am a frequent visitor to the Vieux Carre' and longtime LA resident. Anything you leave out in our humidity will eventually rust. That being said,waxing with automobile wax and other similar products may delay onset. However, all of my bikes get stolen before they have time to rust so I keep this one inside. I'm very pleased with the quality.

I have put it outside in the sun, but i don't leave it outside. I live in Florida and sometimes it is to humid outside, and i don't want it to rust or get dirty.

I think it will be fine outside, there is nothing that can rust. I have had my ramp for over a year and I use it everyday with no issues. My St. Bernard loves it.

The table is made of aluminum and stainless steel, so being outside would not likely result in rusting. If it is under an awning or has shelter, definitely no issues. If in direct contact with rain, I think the question is whether the wheel locks and baskets would rust/corrode. I am not sure. For the price and quality, I do think that is is worth the risk. There are also spray on items such as lacquer that you may be able to apply to the steel components to keep them from rusting. They sell it in the spray paint aisle at most DIY stores.

It is solid plastic, so it's not going to rust. It isn't a flimsy plastic either, you should be fine using it outside.

I had it outside all Summer and it didn't show any signs of rust. I did put it away for the Winter.

Hello,We have checked with the manufacturer and they do not recommend having this outdoors unless they are covered. They may rust if they get wet. If you have some sort of patio covering, where they are under the shade constantly, then it may be alright outdoors. We do apologize we were unable to give you a specific answer. If you need anything else, please let us know.Thank you.

I would not leave it exposed to weather. It will eventually show corrosion.

I bought one of these 4 years ago. I move it outside for the warm months (May-Oct) and bring it in for the winter. I live in Washington, DC, so it has been out in the rain and sun. Mine has not rusted. I love it!

Mine in hung outside the shower area. It is chrome though so it shouldn't rust.

The paint on the rack comes off with use. I would imagine that even with moderate use it comes off fairly quick. With that being said, your protection against the elements goes away and it will be subject to rust. I would not recommend leaving it outdoors. Hope that helps.

It has been out in the elements for two months and it hasn't rusted. I haven't folded it, yet.

The frame seems well coated. I leave it outside, but under a screen porch. I'm into the second year, and no sign of rust at all.

It will lose its finish and rust. It is not made to be in the direct sunlight or get wet. If you had it covered by a porch or something where it would get indirect sunlight and not be impacted by the weather it would probably be fine.

It's actually not very sturdy, if storing inside probably ok. wouldn't leave my bike on it outdoors any wind would knock it over. Light weight & compact just not designed that well! Hope that helps

We've had the cooler for about 6 months and it shows no sign of rust as of now. We do live in a desert area and it is stored in a covered area on the patio. We've been very pleased with the cooler for parties.
