Protecting cover for fatbike
In this article
Fatbikes have become an increasingly common sight on the streets. These ‘wide-tyre bikes’ feature extra-wide tyres and are ideal for riding on softer surfaces such as snow, sand and mud. Popular brands include Knaap, Phatfour, Brekr and Ruff-Cycles. Protecting your fatbike with a good cover can certainly be worthwhile. In this article, we explain why.
Protection against the weather
Transport
Fatbikes are ideal bikes to take with you on holiday on the back of a motorhome or caravan. After all, what could be better than cruising along the boulevard at your holiday destination? During the journey, however, a fatbike mounted on a bike rack can become quite dirty. Protecting it with a good bike cover keeps it clean while travelling, so once you arrive at your destination, you can head straight to the beach! Or the terrace. Or the swimming pool. Or…
Theft
As mentioned earlier, fatbikes are becoming increasingly popular. Unfortunately, the number of reported fatbike thefts is rising as well. If your bike is regularly parked outside, covering it helps keep it out of sight. DS COVERS bike covers feature a lock hole, allowing you to easily secure the cover to your fatbike using a chain lock. This not only helps keep your fatbike dry and clean, but also makes it less visible to potential thieves.
Which cover is suitable for my fatbike?
The METZ bike cover is an excellent fit for virtually any fatbike. The cover is 100% waterproof and therefore suitable for outdoor use. If you want to transport a fatbike on the back of a motorhome or caravan, the STAR or EAGLE II bicycle carrier cover is the best choice.
