Can anyone help please?
I'm looking for an indoor cover for the Duc and I remember seeing an advert for a framed clear plastic structure that came with a cannister which absorbed the moisture inside the 'cover'. You could recharge the cannister by sticking it in the oven and baking it every now and then.

I've been through all my old bike mags and can I find it Does anyone else remember this product and can you you supply contact details? Thanks for any help

Make your own with duct tape, plastic sheet and a container of silica gel.

I looked into doing something similar a couple years age, when I had a damp garage. Move house since, so no longer a problem.

I did find a webiste that sold this. Essentially it's a very large plastic bag, some strong closure ties, and a bag of silica. I think it was about £30. It did work well. I'll see if I have any paperwork from that left over if you're interested, Henners.

Dibs, why? ....
... when I've got you :P

Felix - know which one you mean and it isn't the one - I need one I can use all year round and basically drive into, hence the frame. Cheers for the thought.

I remember seeing one for a metal framed 'tent' but sadly I cant remember details for hat one

However I do have a 'vac-bag' - yep OK its just a big poly bag and a sack of dry-sorb or sillica gel - but I thought it was a great kit....heres the link...

Happy shopping

Henners you\'re doin it all wrong
I keep my bike at work, and just get our young slave, to wash it dry it and polish it, at once a day, then he sprays it with "muc off" Bike spray, keeps it tip top no matter what i do to it. So let me know and i'll lend you my slave.
