Arkel Raincover for Small Handlebar bag

Arkel's rain cover is made out of ultra light 1.9 oz Silicon Coated Ripstop Nylon, so they are feather light and don't take up much room. An elasticized drawstring allows them to be adjusted to fit the load and piece of stretch micro mesh fabric at the bottom allows any water that gets inside to drain. Besides keeping your panniers dry, rain covers also help keep them clean of the grit and grime that you pick up on wet road and that is so difficult to wash. Plus, the clear window lets you see the map even when the cover is on.
