Familiar with this bike cover?
Just wondering if anyone has experience with this cover, or covers in general.

Never used one before. I understand wanting to protect your bike but I'd be uncomfortable not being able to see anything out of the rearview mirror. I can still see what's behind me with three bikes on my existing rack.

I don't like it because of the visibility problem and it looks like putting a big sail on the back of a car. I think there would be a lot flapping around and wind resistance, even behind a vehicle. Why such a big cover? I normally place plastic bags around the handlebars and cover the brooks saddle.
