Saracen Bike Covers — Mantra, Ariel & Myst

Saracen is a British mountain bike brand, from hardtails ridden on local trails to full suspension bikes built for going down fast. Bikes like these come back muddy and stay muddy, and their wide bars make them a squeeze through a front door — so they get parked in the yard, the side alley or wherever there is room outside.

Every Saracen model in our fit database takes the XL / MTB. It is the wider of our two covers, made for exactly this kind of bike.

Which BikeParka fits your Saracen?

Accessories change the shape of a bike more than the frame does. A rack, panniers, a bar bag, a top box or a rear child seat all add bulk, and mudguards add length at both ends. If you are unsure how yours will sit under the cover, send us your exact bike model and accessories and we'll check before you order.

All BikeParka covers are made from waterproof, seam-sealed ripstop fabric, and they're PFAS- and PFC-free. Adjustable toggles draw the cover in around the bike on windy days, and each one packs into its own Stuff Sac. The URBAN has built-in lock-through panels so cover and bike can be secured together; the STASH and XL / MTB have brass eyelets at the hem for threading a cable lock.

Which size cover?

It comes down to handlebar width. The XL / MTB takes handlebars up to 100cm, so it is the one for mountain bikes, trekking bikes, bigger frames, bulkier e-bikes, or a standard bike with a rear child seat — and it is the cover we recommend right across the Saracen range. The STASH and the URBAN are the same size and the same fit as each other, and they suit standard bikes with handlebars up to 63cm: road, gravel, hybrid, commuter, city and standard e-bikes. Between those two, the difference is locking: the URBAN has built-in lock-through panels, while the STASH has brass eyelets at the hem for a cable lock.

Saracen cover questions

Which cover fits a Saracen Mantra?

The XL / MTB. It is cut for handlebars up to 100cm, so the Mantra fits with room to spare.

Is there a cover for the Saracen Ariel?

Yes, the XL / MTB. The Ariel, the Zenith and the Kili Trail all sit within its 100cm handlebar limit.

What about the Saracen Myst?

The Myst takes the XL / MTB as well. Every Saracen in our fit database takes the same cover, so a downhill bike and a hardtail like the Zen are both covered by it.
