Review on ๐Ÿšด Thinvik 2-Pack Bike Frame Sweat Guard: Effective Sweat Absorption to Prevent Bicycle Corrosion during Indoor Cycling Training by Adam Stone

Revainrating 4 out of 5

2 Pack - Great Value

It's handy to have two guards to keep clean between trips to the laundry. The instructions say hand wash only, but I've machine washed each one over 10 times with no visible wear. To keep the Velcro from getting tangled up with other things, I put the protector in a delicate pouch and wash it in cold water. Overall coverage is less than my old version of Cycleops. However, both Cycleops and this Thinvik require an extra towel to cover the headset. The 6 inch velcro straps are just about enough for my setup as they wrap around the elbow brace but not the entire handlebars. My saddle is mounted on a 4" long aero seatpost and this setup creates 4" of clearance over the top tube which is not protected. The distance to the Cycleops protection is 2 inches. I've used each pair about ten times and the elastic hasn't worn down or lost its properties when stretched. If the guard had a longer velcro it would have received a 5 star rating.

Pros
  • Eco-Friendly
Cons
  • Only Available in Black
