Product Information

Full details

This AtranVelo Cycle Basket Rain Cover is designed for cyclists who need to protect their carried items from the elements. Its key benefit is providing a simple, effective shield against rain and spray. A potential caveat is that it's a cover, not a fully enclosed bag, so heavy downpours might still allow some moisture ingress. This cover is available in three sizes, including 40x30cm, and is designed to stretch over the top of most standard bike baskets.

FAQs

What are the dimensions of the AtranVelo Cycle Basket Rain Cover?

The rain cover is available in three sizes: 30x30cm, 40x30cm, and 50x30cm.

How do I choose the right size for my basket?

Measure the top dimensions of your bike basket. Select the cover size that most closely matches or is slightly larger than your basket's measurements for a good fit.

Is this cover completely waterproof?

The cover provides protection against rain and spray, but it is not fully submersible or guaranteed to keep contents bone dry in extreme downpours. For maximum protection in heavy rain, consider using waterproof inner bags.

Can I use this cover on different types of baskets?

It is designed for standard basket shapes. While it can stretch, it may not fit unusual shapes or significantly oversized baskets effectively.

How should I clean the rain cover?

Wipe it down with a damp cloth. If necessary, use mild soap and water. Always allow it to air dry completely before storing.

Does this cover offer security features?

No, this is a rain cover and does not provide security against theft. It is designed solely for weather protection.

Can I store it when not in use?

Yes, the cover is lightweight and can be folded into a compact size for easy storage in a backpack or saddlebag.

Troubleshooting

Cover blows off during ride

Ensure the cover is stretched fully over the basket and the elastic edges are tucked securely underneath the basket's rim. If possible, use any integrated attachment points or straps. Consider using a bungee cord for extra security on windy days.

Basket contents get wet

Check that the correct size cover is being used and that it is fitted snugly. For heavy rain or prolonged exposure, consider using additional waterproof bags for highly sensitive items inside the basket.

Cover material appears to be degrading

Ensure the cover is being cleaned with mild soap and water only, and is allowed to air dry completely after use. Exposure to extreme UV rays for extended periods can degrade materials over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To use the rain cover, simply unfold it and stretch the elasticated edges over the top of your bike basket. Ensure it is pulled taut to minimize flapping in the wind and maximize coverage. For added security in windy conditions, you can tuck the edges under the basket's rim or use integrated straps if your basket has them.

Compatibility: This cover is designed to fit AtranVelo baskets and similarly sized standard bicycle baskets. It is available in three dimensions: 30x30cm, 40x30cm, and 50x30cm. Measure your basket's top dimensions to select the most appropriate size. It is primarily designed for basket-style carriers, not panniers or rack bags.

Care: Clean the cover with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the material. Allow the cover to air dry completely before storing it to prevent mildew.
