Accessorise your foldie

A cover like no other

Tern's carry-on cover V2.0 is bike cover that you can't go without on your multi-modal commutes..

TERN had redesigned the carry-on cover and the casing that comes with it actually folds up into a neat pack.

Rather than having it strapped onto your bike's saddle, you can stash it into your messenger bag, or lash it onto your seatpost.

A pair of velcro straps helps it to be tucked away as if it's not there at all.

Once you've strapped-in the bike securely when folded, the cover wraps up the bike completely and you are good to go.

If you have a Tern folding bike that is roughly below 9kgs (I am talking about the X-series 20-inch bikes), the carry-on cover can be lugged for some distance before you go completely wasted on energy.

Again, its only a cover and bagging the bike is temporary.

There's little protection provided on your bike's frame and components because the cover is a really thin layer of nylon.

The Tern Carry-on cover retails at USD$45 on premiumbikegear.com which is roughly about RM160.80 excluding duty, sales tax and GST.
