Elastic strap for fastening
Elastic fastening strap is an accessory for bicycle covers and is used to secure the cover around your city bike, e-bike or motorcycle, for example when it is parked at the station or in the courtyard.
Why the strap is a good choice
- Secure hold: The strap keeps your bicycle cover together underneath the bike, so the cover does not blow off parked bikes at the station or in the courtyard.
- Easy to fit: The elastic can quickly be placed around the handlebars, basket or through the locking eyelets, saving you time every day.
- Flexible use: Use the strap both to secure bicycle covers and as an extra strap for luggage or panniers.
- Space-saving: Its small size and simple storage mean that the strap can always be kept in the saddlebag or bicycle basket.
Fit and dimensions
The strap is available in several lengths, typically 45 cm, 60 cm and 90 cm, so you can choose the length that suits your bike type and where you want to fasten it. Its elastic nature makes it suitable for both narrower handlebars and larger baskets, but choose the length according to your bike's geometry and where you want to route the strap.
