it depends on on what kind of pvc you bought and also the temperature i think but you'll probably be fine

If you just leave it outside it will be fine. But if you let it get to like 10 degrees then smack it on a rock it will shatter..

it depends on the size of PVC. the smaller diameter, 1in diameter, stuff will do better in the cold but will shatter when its really cold

bigger diameters and thicker pipes tend to do better. I haven't had any issues yet.

I've cracked way too many rails from hitting them in really cold weather. Only leave them outside uf you're not gonna hit them when it's that cold.

Theyre going to be fine outside. Have had the same rails for 4 years now, give or take 2, and theyve been outside since i got them. Only things that have broken are chips in the beginning of the pvc from baby crushers and my brothers friends who just smashed into the front.

I've broken one of those big green construction tubes before after it was left out in the cold.

I tried to 3 over it and landed at the end and the thing exploded
