BikeParka STASH Waterproof Bicycle Cover - Ciel Blue

Does exactly what it says. Sturdy, waterproof cover. Easily fits 2 children's bikes with room to spare. Handy tightening cords to protect from the wind.

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.

Bought this bike cover as I have recently needed to keep my bike outdoors. I chose this cover at it wasn't too expensive but not too cheap either. I have used a bike cover before and it did not last long and quickly became worn and split with constant use , also with the more cheaper covers they do not appear to fit over the bike too well and often slip off in gusts of wind . The cover has been used everyday, initially I did find putting the cover on rather tricky and took me longer than I had expected, with practice it has proven easier to attach. Love the colour of the bike cover and blends in well outdoors, the cover is strong and has kept the bike totally dry in the recent rain. I would recommend this product but would point out to follow the instructions fully on how to put the cover on. The bike cover arrived quicker than I had expected and was in perfect condition.

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.

I had high hopes for this product, partly based on the very positive reviews, but after only two days it is clear that this really isn't fit for purpose. This item replaced a previous bike cover (cheapest from Halfords) that I'd had for over three years and had finally started to wear away on the sides where it rubs against the brickwork. This BikeParka from the off comes with a label telling you if it's in 'full sun' it'll need replacing in a year, 'partial sun' extends this to three years (good to get the built-in-obsolescence out of the way at the start). I was happy to overlook this for a good product. It just isn't. After only the second day I've been outside to a bike on its side due to it being blown over, with the BikeParka half blown-off. I've secured the top and bottom pull-toggles, I've even zip-tied the eyelts at the bottom which are meant to prevent it being caught by the wind but this makes no difference. It's simply a massive sail that once the wind gets inside, if it is strong enough your bike will be going over, or the cover will be getting blown off. I think even if the bike was secured somewhere the cover would still be getting blown off as with the bottom toggle pulled tight so it is beneath both wheels it still has not stayed secure. Due to this frequent wind-toppling I'm expecting some holes to form in it quite quickly, at which point it'll be getting returned for sure. The fabric doesn't give me any hope that it will last and already feels quite brittle. It will be getting returned very shortly. Shame, it seemed like a good product, yet even the cheapo Halfords cover never acted like a sail as the BikeParka is doing.

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.

After looking at cheaper alternatives, I chose this bike cover as it seemed to offer greater durability. I was concerned about it fitting my small wheeled bike (20" rims), but a quick email to the manufacturer / seller confirmed it should be fine, together with a reassurance that if it didn't fit I could return the item. Super fast delivery saw the cover on my bike in under 24 hours. It fits securely and is clearly made from strong fabric, so I expect my greater investment to be very well worth while. Highly recommended.

good product but the elastic is very tight so I struggle to get it over my admittedly large step through ladies touring bike. Since writing the above I have upped my review to a 4 as I have found that by putting the elastic right under the back wheel first I can get the cover over the (sit up and beg) handlebars and the front wheel (just) - am guessing therefore that most standard mountain bike styles would be ok
