R&G Bike cover

Post by Bondy »

Does anybody use the R&G outside bike cover.

I have used the 19.99 ones from M&P in the past and are OK.
But the R&G one is about £40 :shock: So what makes it worth the money. :?:

Any recomendations as the bike might get banished to the drive and ground anchored. :cry:

its definetly worth a try, r&g dont usually sell poor quality stuff. i think there has fleece lining inside it. i used a £30 motrax one on saturday for 2 hours and it ripped in the wind. typical motrax crap

I use an oxford stormex cover, fleece lined....hasn`t let me down yet.....plus you got holes front and back to put the chains though. more expensive than the R&G cover i think though.

yup the best is stormex, for a budget cover the lidl one take a bit of beating

the stormex ones are okay but they do crack after a while if they are left out in the sun for prolonged periods
