Most of my bike gear is dark colours and nearly been hit a few times in the last week so thinking about getting one of these. I use 20l litre rucksac for commuting (Dakine Heli Pack) and dont want to spent too much.
I've got the [url= http://www.respro.com/products/urban-commuting/cycling/hiviz_hump/ ]Hi-Viz Hump Reflective[/url] and feel pretty happy with it. The fit over my Camelback Cloudwalker isn't that great, but the material it is made from is super reflective as soon as any light hits it.
EDIT: this isn't the cheapest cover, but I decided for an extra £15 my life was worth it, after some close calls with drivers overtaking me at night.
Hi-viz vest wrapped around it
bought a £19 Altura Night vision one last week and haven't been knocked off the bike yet!
Fits a good range - between 10 and 30 litres I think.
Second the Hi-Viz vest option.
Wouldn't mind the waterproofness of the cover though. Hi-Vis is a good cheap option, got one in my desk!
Slight hijack. Does anyone know if the Hump cover will fit over a messenger style bag?
BB nope but if you feel rich maybe you can get a bagaboo in Hi-Viz how cool would that be 😉
More likely to be allowed to buy a bug[u]a[/u]boo..... 🙁
Yeh - I've been thinking of one of these now its dark to put over my pack 😉
There are loads on [url= http://www.beseenonabike.com/shopuk/product_info.php?cPath=22&products_id=284 ]here[/url] I have had the cheapest one for 2 years and it's great!
Crikey the worlds a bad place when you have to resort to one of these - Glad I live in the country 🙂
I sewed some reflective tape to my bag, but maybe that's just because I'm a cheapskate 🙂
Seen plenty of Respro covers and they are certainly nice and visible.
Respro Hump, of course!
But then I would say that..... 🙂
