Are There Covers for Bike Racks

Question

Question:

do they make covers for the actual bike rack itself? like when it is folded up and not being used? It would be nice to keep it out of the elements without having to take the rack on and off.

There are covers for bike racks, and I recommend the Swagman Bike Cover for RVs # S24FR.

This cover is for large bikes like cruisers and e-bikes, and is designed to fit right over your bike rack, tightening with cinch straps.

Keep in mind this is designed for RVs, so if you have a passenger vehicle should only be used on your bike rack when you are not moving to keep it from tearing. There are no covers designed to be used on racks on passenger vehicles that are moving because the wind would tear them up.
