It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

What gear and what PEV do you use in the rain?

Rainy season just started hitting here in Portland and I'm riding a G2 ninebot because I'm not comfortable with the water proofing on the S18 monowheel

Just a waterproof poncho, but if you're looking for budget wet weather gear check out Frog Toggs. I have a couple waterproof shells and stuff like GoreTex and eVent are great, but i'd worry too much about it being stolen from my bike bag plus the poncho can cover the bike when I lock up.
