So far a good ebike storage bag

I bought this to cover my new RadWagon ebike. The bike is about an inch smaller than the cap size advertised and based on previous reviews I decided to give it a try as it should fit the sizes advertised for the bike. Both sets of sizes were correct; it barely fits, but does enough enough. The bike it replaces is an XTreme e-bike, which I've never covered, and it's showing some weathering despite staying under a pop-up canopy that's semi-permanently attached over the patio. I liked the cover so much that I ordered another one the next day as I won't be riding this bike as much now. This bike is more of a stock 26" design (the RadWagon is about a foot longer) and the case goes well with the XTreme, so should fit any standard 26" bike. The cases appear to be made of thin but durable plastic/vinyl. Material, very light and not bulky. I've only had them for a few days, so I can't comment on durability yet. My main issue with them is that the elastic around the bottom can be a little less tight. Putting them on on bikes is problematic as they "close" quite tightly when you try to put them on (think giant, stretchy shower cap). They are difficult to keep open, especially when fitted to the handlebars, but once you do the cover fits the bike snugly. It also has zips on the bottom but as it's in a protected area I probably won't use them but looks like it will help secure the covers in inclement weather. I'm in Florida, near the Arabian Gulf, so there are strong winds at times. I would have liked the handlebars to be a few inches wider. I added 2 mirrors to the RadWagon (the kind that fit into the ends of the handlebars) which makes it very narrow. The swept-back handlebars, like those on a cruising bike, are a fairly standard size like most non-mountain bikes. The XTreme has straight handlebars without mirrors and still fits a little tight. I'm concerned that it will eventually break where the RadWagon's mirrors meet. It's very cramped and the mirrors don't fold down for storage. The time will show. Overall I'm happy with this case so far, unlike small tarpaulins that would be really problematic to stay in place. I can't decide if they are for mopeds or small bikes, but if there are no issues later I would recommend this bag for most bikes, including e-bikes, with an overall length of 79 inches or less.

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Flawed
