Bike Covers for Fiamma rack

[dochiley]

Has anybody any experience/comment about these covers for 2 bikes on rear mounted racks

Bike Cover Archives - Taylormade Screen Covers Ltd in Huddersfield

All our bike covers are designed for two adult bikes which are mounted to the back of a motor home only. We make four types of bike covers for motor homes, two for rear-mounted racks on the back of the motor homes and two for tow ball mounted on the back of the motor home. The cover comes in its...

They seem more substantial than Fiamma or Thule options.

As it happens, we have recently purchased the Taylor made bike cover, Far superior to the old knackered Fiamma one and the flap that goes through the bike carrier mount does an excellent job of keeping the bikes clean

The material feels like it will last ages, hopefully

We ordered the 2 slit push bike cover

I have had one a couple of months ,Mines the Ebike one.Seems good quality. Fits well.I had my fiamma one for 16 years.The zip gave up .Looked at the new fiamma. And dont feel as good quality. Very happy with the Taylor made cover.

+1 for Taylormade. Ordered about 6 weeks ago, but went for the ebike version, because the standard 2 slit bike cover risked snagging on the handlebars. There's a wee bit of spare cover that looks a little slack, but better than too tight and snagging!

The Warning Triangle was purchased from Camperite Leisure and is aluminium to comply with Spanish Regs.

So pleased with Taylormade that we bought the long style external screen cover, delivered 2 days ago. If the wind dies down and the rain stops, we might be able to do a 'trial fit'!

Do the bike covers work well? With the amount of spray that is kicked up behind the van do the covers do a good job of keeping most of the road grime off the bikes or does it eventually work its way underneath the cover on the bikes on a longer journey in heavy rain?
Thanks

Bought one to replace our string of Fiamma ones.
Taylor Made Top Notch!! Highly recommended - more expensive but worth it.

The Taylor Made ones have a strong paracord elastic hem which pulls tight and prevents the road spray coming up.

We bought it primarily as a holder for the aluminium Spanish warning sign as shown in @marchie’s picture … if it reduces the spray that is an added bonus.

I’ve a 3rd option: bags4everything.co.uk
We’ve this product from them: https://bags4everything.co.uk/product-category/bike/shaped-2-bike-covers/

it’s our 1st product of that type but we’re pleased with it.

We’ve had the Taylornade 2-ebike cover for about 5 years, it has the 2 slits at the rear.
Pros: Heavy duty, substantial, well made, still some life left in it.
Cons: maybe too heavy (when you include weight of ebikes), no sleeve for warning sign, takes a while (10/15mins) to put on take off cos of tightening method.
Hope this helps. I’m looking for a more lightweight, easier to use cover, maybe a Thule.

Yes they are very good . A lot tougher than most. This is a 2 E bikes

cover but can also be used for just 1 as in the picture.
We also have screen and bonnet covers by the same firm which are also top quality.

Yeah, I think we must have an older version maybe. Difficult to attach a warning sign, compulsory in some countries. I've tried heavy duty velcro but it just detaches after a while.
