 too short & too thin January 6, 2009
Basically the cover is too short and does not cover the entire wheels of the bike properly. The material of the cover is also a lot thinner than I had imagined. It is almost paper thin and it feels very fragile and weak. I'm not sure how long can this material can withstand the outdoor weather of sun and rain exposure. I'd expected a higher quality product from Topeak, considering the amount paid for a mere sheet of fabric. And also, folding the cover in its bag is like mission impossible, so don't even bother trying.
 Topeak bike cover October 19, 2008
This cover arrived today & I put it on the bike, an EXL Cannondale Adventure street bike & it is a super fit.
I was concerned that it might be too small but the fit is great.
We live one block from the ocean & even though the bike is garage kept, the salt air will get to things & they will rust.
I hope this cover will delay the rusting process.
The material seems like a heavier weight & plenty thick for it's job.
Later.

Only lasted a year October 8, 2008
Ar first I really liked this cover as it fit my bike well. I ordered a second one when I bought a new bike from AMZN. It last about a year before it rotted and tore. For this price I think it should have lasted at least 2 years. I will not purchase another one, so if anyone has found a durable cover in this price range please let me know. Thanks.
great September 18, 2008
Great item, it fits the whole bike and the material is strong not cheap. The elastic on the bottom snugs the bike perfect

This bike cover is sufficient at first, but, after owning it for a while, I see that it has some major flaws. It doesn't cover the wheels entirely, it doesn't fit back into the zipper pouch once opened, and it tears like crazy after a while. I've considered duct-taping the inside where all the holes are, but then I ask myself: why don't I just buy a better quality bike cover?
