Re: [RBW] Re: Heavy-duty bike cover?

[Nick Lindsey]

How about a grill cover?  One with an elastic peramiter.    I used one in a similar situation to your’s, and it worked out well.   Nick L.

I actually have a bike stored elsewhere under a tarp, but that's a situation where it's under the tarp most of the year, then I visit, take it out once, then put it back a week later. It takes too long to remove and replace it, though, for this use, because I take it on many short rides throughout the week. The nice thing about the cover I currently use is that it's elastic at the bottom and goes on and off quickly.

No cover is going to last overly long outdoors, depending on how much direct sunlight it may endure. They're all throwaways eventually, no matter what any sales pitch my say. It just doesn't pay to invest more than you have to. I've had a snow blower outdoors under tarps for years, out of direct sunlight.  On Thursday, May 28, 2026 at 2:44:22 PM UTC-4 Bruce Byker James wrote: Has anyone come across a heavy-duty bike cover made out of something thick that will last a while? I bought a cheap one a couple of years ago that's starting to rip now, so I'm looking for something better. It doesn't need to be waterproof, just sturdy and large enough to accommodate the long wheelbase. In case you wonder: This is for storing my Clem outside on my porch in the city, where it takes about three days to get a coating of dust. Locked up well, of course.
