Brompton bicycle cover by Radical Design

Brompton bicycle cover by Radical Design

We found them! 

The Radical Design 16 inch wheel size Brompton bicycle cover, is like the old Brompton (QCOV) cover complete with a saddle bag, so you can easily get the cover back into the bag and store it while you ride

The cover / holders fits easily to either seatpost or handlebars using our favourite material - velcro

There are two seperate parts - the cover itself and the pouch for the cover - with some spare space for storing an inner tube (or two) and an energy bar

If touring you can leave the whole cover in a hotel and stuff the pouch full for a days riding worth of supplies - including a thin waterproof jacket 

When you want to cover the Brompton simply pull the cover out, unfold and cover the bike - useful for public transport carriers who require that bikes are covered or just to make it look neater (camouflaged?) when stored in an office / hospital / restaurant for example (and because it's not badged Brompton - people will have even less chance of guessing what's underneath!)

It can be partially unzipped so that the saddle is accessible for carrying the bike while the rest is still covered

The cover bag attaches to the saddle bag hooks on the back of a Brompton or Brooks saddle or to the handlebars, there is also a velcro strap to attach to the seat post or stem to stop the bag swaying while riding. But if on the seat post you may need to remove before lowering the seat post 

Essential!

A bag such as this is essential if travelling by Eurostar and using the Brompton to / from the train - as to carry your Brompton on board it must be inside a bag (and it's not so easy to ride around with a B bag) - it's one of our must have Brompton accessories (we always take one when travelling)
