Protect your bike from the weather or keep the dust off your bike while it’s in storage with bicycle covers for one bike, two bikes or three.
You wouldn’t think your bike could suffer by just sitting around but it’s mechanical so it can!
The most common thing that happens to an exposed bike is rust. There’s a surprising amount of moisture in the air and left to sit on your bike it will corrode.
Your moving components on your bike like your wheels, your headset (which is turning your handlebars) and your pedals and chain are all moving parts. And the way they move is often assisted by lubrication of the bearings. Exposed to the weather this lubricant can dry out & leave the metal exposed to the air. And thus it will corrode.
Rust isn’t always the end of the world, it can be removed or just ignored sometimes if you are lucky and it isn’t huge! But better than gambling with the elements, it’s a good idea to cover your bike. Whether you are leaving it for a week or a month we would recommend any bike stored outside your house is covered. And if you cover your bike while it’s safely in your garage you will avoid things like dust getting into components.
