Item # 723020

REI Members get back an estimated $ 4.00 on this item as part of their annual member refund.

The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Comments about Sci Con Bike Defender:

I couldn't find a similar product made for a large mountain bike, so I took a chance on this one. It fits my Stumpjumper 29'er pretty well. The fork protection could be a little better, but it seems pretty good for the price. Its very strechy and covers all of the shifters and brake handles, and covers the saddle as well. Does not protect against rain, but its not a total cover anyway.

Comments about Sci Con Bike Defender:

This bike bra is terrific. It stretches right over a large road bike without having to remove the front wheel, prior to mounting on a bike rack -- there is sufficient clearance above the front wheel to be able roll the bike in and out of the garage. I believe it is the only one of its kind out there to offer this functionality. Also, nice elastics in place to attach the lower front of the bra to the front forks. Works like a charm on a big bike atop a Thule rack. That said, not sure how waterproof it is, so likely good idea to combine with a waterproof seat cover (or plastic shopping bag) to ensure a dry saddle. Not cheap, but extremely good value and extremely functional. It stops bugs aplenty, too.
