BikeParka STASH Waterproof Bicycle Cover - Ciel Blue

When we moved house we lost our storage area, and with no space indoors we were worried about the bikes being left outdoors uncovered. In come the BikeParkas.Having used them for 9 months now (including in the heavy snow this year) I can safely say the bikes are well protected inside. No water gets in at all. In addition the Parkas don't flap about or fly off in the wind. The colour is still strong, the Parka is totally intact and looks great. We've had our neighbours and postman asking about them!The Parkas are one-size-fits-all, and our bikes are quite large - one has a 20 inch frame, the other 21 inch. I was a bit worried at first, and it took me a while to figure out the best way to get the bike in. I found that turning the handlebars 90 degrees, putting the BikeParka on, then - if you want - turning the handlebars back - got it in perfectly. Had no issues with the smaller bike.As we use these to store our bikes outside we have very heavy duty D-locks on the bikes attaching them to the fence. We use the D-locks under the BikeParkas, however there is a version with a flap for a lock to come through. For me, it wasn't worth the extra money as we rarely use the bikes, but if you were regular riders and want to lock your bike up I would check out this version.

Have not bought a bike cover for many years Was unsure which one to buy as some were obviously "cheap quality" Decided to buy the bike parka as it was different, stylish and appeaed to be made to suit the purpose - I.e. to effectively cover a bike and look like it should Was not disappointed, a very good quality cover, We'll designed, very tough, fitted very well and was first tried out today when my new bike and cover was left out and we had overnight snow - result was a nice dry bike.Would highly recommend this to anybody that wants a quality, stylish cover.

After some use it tends to tear, it should be reinforced in key areas like the tires or the seat. Other than that, it serves its purpose in perfection, being easily mounted and dismounted. Good value for money.

This is the only bike cover I have found that actually keeps the rain off and we have certainly had plenty of rain recently! The cover keeps my bike completely dry as the water sits on top, rather than soaking through. Brilliant! A bit of a faff to get on and off, but I am getting quicker with practice.

An outrageous rip-off, I'm afraid. I ordered this, fitted it (never mind the marketing hype it is no different to any other cover), only for my partner to exclaim at the colour. She was so upset that she offered to buy me a black one. So, I ordered another cover for 1/5th the price (literally £8 instead of £40). The intention was to use one over the other to provide better protection and still benefit from the supposedly superior performance of the Bike Parka. Well, the much cheaper alternative arrived.... and it is of almost exactly the same fabric, the same shape and construction and (a bonus) includes the ties that you need to keep it in place. The Bike Parka has eyelets but no ties. The BP is therefore virtually redundant. By now it has had five days wear and it would be unfair to return it, but be warned - the hype is just that. A complete rip-off.

Ordered this for my BMC Alpenchallenge Hybrid bike size Medium and it fit's easily an bagginess can be tightened up by the top toggle.comes with a bag incase your staying anywhere else other than home and is nice and small easily fitted inside a rucksack.Seem's robust enough but I wouldn't rough handle it as it's a weather resistant cover worth the peace of mind to keep your bike dry and protected.

Honestly for the price I was expecting something fitting the bike perfectly.

Fantastic product,Can be a bit of an awkward for certian mountian bikes but this isnt a problem once your use to how to fit it...Can imagine it would be amazing for road bikes.Looks very smart..TIP: if you are only going to use it for commuting to work, leave it in work at the end if the day, saves you carrying it around on your cycle...!UPDATE: been using this for around 2 months now, for my road bike aswell as my mountian bike, and have to say, I swear by this bike cover...it may be a fair price for just a bike cover just just think how much damage your bike will get without it!
