Hello All,

Can anyone recommend a bike cover? I have two Raleigh e-bikes that go on the Thule bike rack on back of the MoHo. I need a cover that works when they are on the rack. Definitely needs not to flap when being driven. I looked at the Thule offering but the reviews were rubbish. Any suggestions would be welcome.
 
Very happy with our Taylormade bike cover.

I use a motorbike cover and two bungee cords, few years old now but no problems.
 
We have fiamma one had it for six years not in constant use but still going strong. Others will say they are rubbish but it works for us.
 
We've had a Hinderman Concept cover for a few years now which totally encloses the bikes. Its also worth investing in a couple of bungees to wrap around the outside (as shown in the photo on the website) - which goes a long way to stop it flapping.

Another recommendation for Taylor Made. I have the 2 slit one.
Very protective and secure but you need to develop a bit of technique to fit it easily with my high mounted carrier.
 
I bought the cheap Go-outdoors one to last over the first summer in 2018 but it's still going strong.
 
Found the bike covers to be quite heavy and bulky ( but robust). Changed to an Oxford motor bike cover which goes over two e bikes. Needs separate straps to avoid billowing. Packs down really small
 
i just bought the standard Halfords bike cover (and wrapped a couple of bungees to prevent flapping, which worked well), what I hadnt factored was that with the cover on I couldnt see through the rear cameras when driving. The cover blocks vision on mine (can see fine without a cover on).
Bike goes in the garage now rather than leaving it out on display or exposed to the weather.
 
Worth considering and will make up special sizes and shapes

We have an Oxford.
I would not recommend our version.
As the zip is across the top.
Which would be just what you want for a bike carrier mounted on a tow bar.
But requires a step ladder to zip it up when covering a bike rack mounted high up on the back of a motorhome.

(I have even tried fitting it upside down, but that does not work either)

Can anyone confirm whether their covers are suitable for the Fiamma lift bike rack, please?
