For people who are engaged in professional cycling, as well as for those who want to comfortably transport their two-wheeled transport over long distances, there is a special bicycle cover. It can be purchased at the sports shop both with the bicycle and separately from it, measuring the necessary length and width parameters for this. For those who have the skills of using a sewing machine , everything becomes even easier - such a cover can be sewn by yourself, but also save.
Carrying bag for bicycle
The most convenient of all models is a bag in the form of a large bag with strong handles. In itself, it has a small weight, which means it will not become an unnecessary load. The bicycle should be disassembled before the trip - remove the front wheel, the wings and the steering wheel. Some people have a natural question - why not remove the rear wheel at the same time. The answer to it is obvious - the assembly will take more time, and for models that have a speed switch, perhaps its frustration, and adjustment will take time and, besides, not everyone knows how to handle it on their own.
Although it is fair to say that there are special cases that provide for the removal of the rear wheel. Such models are made of very dense material, sometimes of plastic, so they do not have to worry about the state of the transmission, but they are also worth a lot, unlike a canvas bag.
To pack the bike, first insert the rear wheel into the cover, and then gradually pull the bag onto the saddle and frame. The plug on which the front wheel is attached is packed in a special tight compartment, which will keep the bag from breaking with a sharp edge.
The wheel can be in a special compartment inside the bag or it is located outside on the body of the bag. If it is not equipped with a pocket for the wheel, you can purchase for it a separate round cover, which is selected in accordance with the diameter of the wheel. After you fasten the lock, the bag with the bike is ready for transportation by car, train or plane.
For a non-standard model that has a transformation system that allows the bicycle to bend in half, there is a folding bicycle cover. It will be somewhat thicker than the familiar bag for a standard bicycle, but it will take up almost half the space. To put the vehicle in such a bag there is no need to remove the wheels - it's all very simple.
But children's, teenage and BMX bicycles are packed completely without dismantling in special bags of suitable size for them. The mountain bike cover is chosen in accordance with the weight of the model, as well as its dimensions.
Bicycle Cape Cover
In order for the equipment not to spoil under the influence of the environment, there are cover-covers made of a special dense non-permeable material that can keep the working parts of the bicycle for a long time. This cloak does not take much space when transported - it can be rolled up and packaged in a backpack, but its benefits are invaluable.
Especially popular is the cover-cloak of cyclists,
In winter, the bicycle for safety from the temperature drops on the balcony or accidentally getting dust in the garage can also be covered with a similar cloak. Having removed it in the spring before the start of the bike season, it will only be necessary to lubricate the chain, adjust the brakes and you can start again, without forgetting to take a cloak with you just in case.
