VK bike garage
VK bike garage from VK International is a bike cover - a bicycle cover for outdoor storage that protects one regular bicycle (and also a moped or scooter) from rain, snow and UV when you, for example, park your commuter bike at the station, in the carport or on the balcony.
Why this cover is a good choice
- Keeps the bike dry in rain and snow thanks to weather- and water-repellent polyethylene and UV coating.
- Protects against the sun's UV rays so paint and plastic parts last longer.
- Provides space for one bike without it being exposed to scratches or freezing, ideal for single spaces in a courtyard or on a balcony.
- Makes it quick to move and store your bike in a carport or at shared bike parking without having to look for extra cover.
Fit and dimensions
With a length of 220 cm and a height of 100 cm, the cover fits the handlebars, saddle and frame of most standard adult bikes. The dimensions mean that the cover has enough length for the bike's wheels and enough height to accommodate the saddle and handlebars without sitting tight. As the cover is designed for one bike, it is recommended to measure your bike from front wheel to rear wheel and compare it with the 220 cm to be sure of the fit.
Features and materials
The material is polyethylene with UV coating, which makes the cover resistant to sun damage and weather. The cover is weather- and water-repellent and suitable for outdoor storage. There are no integrated elastics, straps or eyelets, so fastening is done by manual placement or with your own retrofitted solutions.
Use and storage
VK bike garage is suitable for covering a commuter bike at the station, for placing in a carport or for putting on the balcony in an urban environment. When using it in shared bike parking, it is recommended to place the bike in shelter and avoid leaving the cover on permanently in strong wind without additional fixing. When the cover is not in use, it can easily be folded and stored in a cupboard or under a shelf.
