Description

Made for longtail cargo bikes — the covers that carry kids and shopping on an extended rear rack. The Longtail adds the length and coverage a standard cover simply can’t stretch to.

Waterproof ripstop with fully taped seams keeps out rain, snow, ice and grime, while the toggle adjusters shape it around longer frames so it stays put outside. Like every BikeParka, it’s PFAS- and PFC-free.

Two lock-through slots let you pass a lock through the cover and around the frame — securing bike and cover together and holding it low in the wind.

Folds into its own Stuff Sac. This is the version for longtails without child seats — got seats fitted? That’s the Longtail WS.

Care

Wipe clean with a damp cloth; no machine washing. Let it dry before packing away. We recommend rotating your BikeParka regularly and avoiding prolonged direct sun to maximise its lifespan. You may see a little condensation on the bike under any outdoor cover — whatever the brand, it’s unavoidable and vents out on its own; spots where the cover touches the bike just take a little longer to clear.

Delivery & returns

Free UK delivery over £50. Shipped worldwide with duties handled at checkout. Easy 14-day returns on unused covers.

“I leave my fat-tyre utility bike on a Scottish island for extended periods. Not only does my XL BikeParka protect my electric bike from the elements, it looks cool to boot! XLent!”

— Bob Moyler · Verified buyer · XL / MTB
★★★★★

“I already had the STASH for my road bike, so when I ordered the XL/MTB for my mountain bike I expected the same high quality — and I wasn’t disappointed. It just works, and it works well.”

— Michael Hewson · Verified buyer · XL / MTB
★★★★★

“The quality of the materials and finishes is remarkable. BikeParka is a little more expensive than their competitors, but their products are really worth the price difference.”

— Matthieu Reynouard · Verified buyer · Cargo
★★★★★

“Fantastic cover. Great all-weather coverage. Fits my Tern GSD Gen3 with Clubhouse and storm box, with a Thule seat, perfectly.”

— James Hoder · Verified buyer · Longtail WS
★★★★★

“We’re using BikeParka with the Aventon Abound LR and are very happy with the fit. The cinching is helpful and it covers down through the wheels with fabric to spare.”

— Kelly Gude · Verified buyer · Longtail
★★★★★

“More than spacious enough to cover the whole frame, and easy to put on and take off. It protects my bike from the rain — and stops it getting covered in a fine layer of dust.”

— Jenny · Verified buyer · STASH
★★★★★

“Loving our BikeParkas! Perfect fit and function, and they blend in with our outdoor camping trips. Very well made!”

— Sam Gachupin · Verified buyer
★★★★★

“Great cover, packs away really neat, and works well with locking up. Keeps my aged Coventry Eagle nice and dry while I’m in the office and it’s outside in the rain. Worth the spend.”

“Worth the investment — best quality, and it’ll last years storing my bike outdoors. I bought the Kids/BMX size for my adult BMX.”
