A stylish cover for your bike is a great thing to have, especially if you cart it around to events on a trailer or bike rack. If the weather stays fine on your way to an event then that’s okay, if not, then your bike starts out all covered in muck and road dirt, which is not a good look.

Even worse, the controls such as brake and clutch levers can be filled with gritty stuff which does them no good at all.
