Bike covers
« on: May 31, 2025, 09:34:05 AM »
I'm looking for some cheap indoor covers for my bikes, ebay has loads but they all look rather scratch material.   Does anyone have any recommendations for decent yet not bank breaking covers?

Oxford Products used to make one that was pretty cheap. The material is like a giant breathable J-cloth and non-scratch, a bit fluffy bike side in. I have three of them but not sure if Oxford still make them. Obviously for indoor use only.

I use Neverland covers myself, nice and cheap, they need to be, the scooter boys here (?) keep nicking them. I haven't noticed any scratches from them, I do look too.
