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.

Any thoughts or suggestions? I am new to riding and the water resistance of my ENGWE EP-2 Pro is questionable. Am I worrying too much?

If the product recommendations don't specify, it's usually best to avoid. My ebike is fine to ride in the rain but my electric longboard isn't, it's just that the important components are in different places and their capabilities are unique to the models. Even then, I try to saran-wrap anything vital (like buttons, screen and connections) before I ride in the rain just to be safe.
