BikeParka URBAN Waterproof Bicycle Cover

Product Information

While its size may be a drawback for those out and about, it does mean it’s much more accommodating of being placed over bike racks, and so represents a better system for more permanent, at-home protection.

Styled in longer length, the jacket includes a split rear hem allowing for comfort in the saddle without compromising coverage.

It stuffs into its own little bag, which comes complete with Velcro straps allowing you to fasten it to your bike frame if the mood takes you. If on the other hand you're commuting and need something lightweight and easily packable then options like the Topeak will be a better bet. Handy arrows point to the front too, which helped when unfurling, but it still took me 2:42 to adequately cover my test bike, the longest time of all. Believing fervently that cycling will save the world, she wishes that more people would just ride a bike and be pleasant to each other.

The UV protection means the fabric itself is going to last longer, as well as protecting your paintwork. I am just getting back into cycling after a nasty episode of mental ill health and cycling is helping me greatly to feel better and cope with the nights drawing in. That being said, it was certainly the snuggest fit, even on a 56cm Specialized Allez, and it wouldn’t accommodate my longer wheelbase Fairlight Secan gravel bike, so if you’re running a 58cm frame or larger, I’d suggest this might be too small to reasonably use.
