In light drizzle it’s okay, but anything heavier, and I’d rather take the bus. With no fenders, you will get soaked no matter what.

I've got some aftermarket tires with better tread and it makes a huge difference in the wet. It can handle rainy days just fine with a few mods.

Having commuted year round I can say it's decent in wet weather. Not perfect, but if you're careful it's manageable. Just dry it off well after riding in the rain.
Can the Amo Mobility Jaunty i Pro get up steep hills?
17 January 2025 08:38
The Jaunty i Pro handles most slopes like a champ as I live in a pretty hilly area. It does stall on really steep inclines, but it's never completely stalled on me.

If you live somewhere that has San Francisco level hills, forget about it. It can only manage a gentle slope. On steeper streets, I have to kick push to help it along.

It's all about technique. It does much better if you build up some speed before hitting a hill. It's made a big difference, because I've learned to anticipate inclines.

Hill performance is decent but it absolutely murders battery life. On long uphill stretches I can practically watch the charge meter drop.

It definitely struggles with me on hills and I’m a heavier rider. If you’re lighter, you might have better luck, but anything too steep is a no go for me.

I’ve found the hills to be better than some other budget e scooters I’ve tried. It won't win any hill climb competitions, but for normal urban inclines it's fine.

Pro tip: Zigzagging up steeper hills help a lot. It’s slower, but the Jaunty i Pro can do it far better than going straight up.

I’ve ridden my Jaunty in light rain without problems. The tires grip well enough, but I definitely don't take it quite as fast. It’s all well sealed, but I always wipe it down after a wet ride just to be sure.

I’m honest, I don’t like to ride in heavy rain. I'm nervous on slippery roads with the small wheels of the Jaunty and concerned about water damaging the battery. I use alternative transport in downpours, but it’s fine for light drizzle.

In wet conditions, the Jaunty handles surprisingly well. It also gives us stability, due to the low center of gravity. The only thing I am genuinely missing here is a super bright headlight for better visibility in the rain.

I’ve noticed a huge drop in range when riding in cold, wet weather. It appears that the battery drains much faster. It’s not a deal breaker, but something to be aware of if you’re commuting in rainy climates.
How does Amo Jaunty perform in wet weather?

It’s really noticeable in the wet, because there’s no ABS. Braking, you have to be extra careful with. I hope future models have this safety feature added by Amo.

The Jaunty is actually better in the rain than my old gas scooter. You don’t have to worry about a wet spark plug or flooded engine. Just hop on and go. The great electric motor instant torque is great for smooth starts on wet roads.

It is not perfect, but it is decent. I had some display glitching after a particularly heavy rainstorm. It just worked itself out, but taught me to be more careful when riding in bad weather.
As the battery of the Amo Jaunty degrades over time, how does the performance of the Amo Jaunty change?
17 January 2025 07:54
I’ve had my Jaunty about 18 months and I’ve definitely noticed battery degradation. I probably lost 15-20% of my original range. I still use it for my commute, but have to charge more often.
As the battery of the Amo Jaunty degrades over time, how does the performance of the Amo Jaunty change?
17 January 2025 07:54
In my experience, the performance drop is not linear. I barely noticed any change the first year. Following that, however, the decline appeared to quicken. At 2 years old, hills that were once easy are a real struggle.
As the battery of the Amo Jaunty degrades over time, how does the performance of the Amo Jaunty change?
17 January 2025 07:54
A lot depends on how you treat the battery, I think. I’m religious about not letting it drop below 20% and never fully charging it, and my 2 year old Jaunty still runs great. This makes a huge difference in proper battery care.
