A lot of the early reviews talk of a gap between the battery cover and frame between the top/bottom mounting points i.e. the battery cover bows out slightly and isn't flush against the frame. It was quite an obvious gap for water ingress.

Apparently Nukeproof said this was a preproduction issue and would be addressed. Have you guys found this to be a problem?

Also, is this just plastic (battery cover) directly against metal (frame) or is there some kind of seal/gasket as well?

I'm very interested in the bike but would hate to worry about riding in the rain or washing the bike if it were that easy to allow water in.

There is a rubber seal around the plastic battery cover, it does sag a bit but nothing crazy and I’m yet to find water in the battery compartment even when I’ve cleaned it with a hose.

Damn. Bummed to hear that. I'm pretty put off by any design that loads the battery from the bottom (most, I know) and that seems pretty unacceptable.

I received mine today just finished setting it all up, I'll take it for a spin tomorrow. I would have gone for the elite but I really liked the green.

Could some one tell me where you'd find the serial number I want to register the bike?

Same, but after 52 yards, so added to a ripped seat,damaged stem and cracked screen, that went back to CRC too.
