Excellently designed to adapt perfectly to both carbon bikes and to the towbar bike rack.
Tested on a long route, with thunderstorms, they perfectly protected the bikes.
Very good cover. Tested in various conditions in northern Norway and Lapland, and overall it performed really well. Some dust and water still came through around the tyre zippers, but getting those completely sealed while keeping them practical might be difficult.
I needed something to keep the salt spray of my bikes when transporting on the boat. The bikes were roof mounted and I didn't't know how well they would hold up with wind, etc... This is not going as fast as a car would so I took the gamble it would work and it was perfect. It's like a wet suit for a bike. Nice thick material. These are so well made and worth every penny.
I have a road bike and my e Mtn bike in vertical one up bike racks on my sprinter. These velo sock covers are exactly what I was looking for!
My bikes are protected from the elements and out of direct view.
I’m currently working my way down the CA coast. Camping and riding. So glad my bikes are covered when not in use.
I’m using a cable lock doubled which fits easily thru the zippered access in the triangle.
With the socks on the bikes are more manageable when putting them on the rack or taking them off.
It takes only a moment to remove the covers.
More like 5 min to put the cover on. It is easier with 2 people but one can manage no problem.
Super functional and great looking on the back of my van!!
Me costó colocarla por primera vez, pero la segunda fue más fácil, y la bici llegó en los dos viajes de 1000km cada uno como nueva
I ordered the waterproof version. The first version I received did not fit my bike (the cover was supposed to fit saddle heights of up to 113 cm, but I couldn’t even fasten it around the saddle at 105 cm).
After I explained the issue and provided photos, a custom-made version was produced for me. This one fits perfectly.
Apart from that, the cover seems very sturdy and well-made. It has already passed its first test in the rain with flying colors. My road bike is now well protected on the bike rack of my camper van.
The quality and the fit of this product are excellent. My road bike is an extra large and it fit perfectly.
I bought this Velosock for my new Canyon Spectral CF ONfly. Sock's amazing, e-bike's amazing, life’s absolutely beautiful. Now just need a rack to put this fantastic setup on.
I like the idea! Fits peerfekt and it is easy to put it on the bike. And it’s easy ro put the bike on the rack. But after 500km there is allready a hole wher the wheelaxle touches the Velosock. Could be stronger meterial there….
Vyzkoušel jsem už spoustu neforemně velkých obalů na kolo s cenovkou kolem 4000,takže počáteční ostych při ceně 9200 korun byl velký.
Za pár dní po objednání zboží přišlo a hned jsme ho vyzkoušeli na cestě do Italie. První oblékání bylo horší, další už celkem v pohodě i když bych spodní zapínání kolem pásku u kol protože to je celkem opruz ale dá se zvládnout i když to děláte na stěně na Obytce .
Takže za mě vřele doporučuji. Navíc jsou kola chráněna před zraky nenechavců
I purchase the cover, as I travel regularly from Spain to the UK, a distance of 1900km each way. The cover fits well, and has protected the bike from the dust and general grime that it collected in the past, I’m not sure about how waterproof it is as it didn’t rain, (as my partner said typical).
The good.
Its easy to secure to the carrier and it does look good
Not so good.
By the halfway point of the trip, I noticed some marks in the material, like little pulls.
What could be improved
I have 40mm handlebar, with SRAM shifters, the material was very tight, and appeared to be stretching against them, I started with the rear derailleur in the small cog, but again it appears to be stretching the material, shifted to the large cog did remove some of the stretch, it might be worth trying to put a patch in that area to help remove the stretch.
Would I recommend.
Yes I would recommend this product, it is a very well manufactured and appears to be made of premium materials, more than happy with it, looking forward to many more trips using it.
Я использую Velosock и очень удовлетворен. Это простое решение, но очень хорошо, чтобы перевозить и охранять велосипед, не обая автомобиля или дома. Материал хорошего качества, прочный и легко мыть. Он слипается быстро и идеально регулируется, в том числе на велосипедах с тележкой и гравием. Для меня это незамечимый аксессуар, особенно когда я еду в меню и стригу велосипед в машине. Полностью рекомендуется для любого велосипедиста, который хочет быть чистым и защищенным. Смотриться богато - красиво и качественно.
...I must admit I was skeptic about the reviews that are saying the quality of the zippers is low, which is not the case. The product is overall very good and works as designed/desired.
You need to practice a bit to get the bike in, make sure the zippers align with the mid of the tires and mark the position of the locks on your bike rack. Don't be afraid to break it, it needs to sit tight in order to not create a parachute at the back of your car. Would definitely buy it again. My first ride was over 700km long without any hazzle.
I have used my Velosock full road bike cover (Shard) several times to transport my bike to and from.
The material is smooth and soft on the bike protecting it from the elements as well as any accidental contact with other bikes when transporting. The zippers are in the most perfect position to get the bike mounted and secured onto a bike rack. The pedal covers are an amazing touch helping protect the vehicle, the bike rack and walls.
Customer service is next level, easy to contact online and over emails. I mis-ordered one cover and was immediately supported by Ilze from Velosock. What an amazing company and idea which helps me protect my investment.
I would recommend this product to anyone who needs to protect their bike during transport as well as at home.
Thank you so so much for the great customer service.
This product is very useful for me. I use it in my car, and it protects my bike and the car's interior from getting dirty. The best part is how easy it is to pack my bike. In Japan, we typically use "rinkou bukuro" (a bicycle carrying bag) for taking bikes on trains, but they can be difficult to use for the first time. The Velosock, however, is easy to put on by myself, making it a very quick way to get my bike ready for transport. My photo was taken on the Toyama Bay Cycling Course, which is a National Cycle Route in Japan.
Protección excelente
Muy contento con la adquisición de estas fundas, (compre una para cada bicicleta road y mtb), el modelo waterproof. Se ajustan como un guante y las protegen del sol y de la lluvia y el barro. Además, en marcha apenas se mueve con el viento debido a ese ajuste tan ceñido. Hay que tener cuidado al ponerla las primeras veces, ya que se puede enganchar en el plato.
