  1. Base on your observation, with or without the cover, your bike is still a target anyway. I grew up in an environment where I was associated with well, people that steals bike. And I can tell you that they don't need a cover to convince them that your bike is not worth taking. Lol. Think protection bro, that's what this cover is all about. If you have a bike worth protecting, of course.
  2. Some of the problems I have always encountered when it comes to bike storage, even when I am storing them in-door, are: 1. They gather dust and dirt; 2. The are exposed to natural elements when stored at balcony, near windows: rust, UV-related discolouration, never failed to surfaced after a while. I tried all bike covers. Most are ugly, pricey, and opaque too - I was shocked in many occasions to find lizards, cockroaches and other bugs getting comfy under the cover. An overseas friend even found snakes. Frustrated, I started designing a cover myself and managed to get a manufacturer made it for me. This is how it looks like: Some of the features I managed to attain: 1. Durable, one-size-fits-all. For bikes up to 180cm, so it suits motorcycles too. 2. Provides all the protections mentioned above. 3. Could be used on bikes standing or mounted. 4. Transparent. Users may now show off their beautiful, prized possession. And of course, no bug surprises. This is how it looks like on some bikes: Due to the difficulty in making such a huge cover (2.5m including gusset!), and selected LDPE materials to provide adequate strength and UV protection, it must sell closer to $9 (if commercially made, in mass), for any chance to breakeven. Even this trial production order cost me more than $20 per piece, including shipping. So if I may have your precious opinion, if you think that this product and price point would work, at least in Singapore, it will be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone, in advanced!
