The Cycle Chic Zoo - Seat Covers


We're loving these animal themed seat covers for rainy days, designed by Tilo Ahmels in Switzerland. The website is in German [google translate is your friend] but we can see that the covers cost €10.

Really elegant, simplistic design. They have a string so that you can pull them tight and knot them under the saddle.

Moooo-ve over, sister. I'm cycling past.

Even the tin they come in is cool.

Seeing the seat covers reminded us of some similar products spotted in Copenhagen a couple of years back. What a lovely little bicycle accessory to personalise your bicycle and compliment your already funky saddle.

Thanks to Elle for the link.

  1. Oh wow. Those are adorable. Now I'll look at my target plastic bag with disdain... poor target plastic bag.

  2. The Dutch subsidiary of the World Wildlife Fund has started a campaign to save the African lion (which in a way is unbelievable as almost all lions in zoos are on the pill). Anyway, if you donate 25 euros you get a lions head saddle cover - imagine lowering your bum onto a set of very big teeth! I don't think it would deter thieves, though.

  7. That goat cover is awesome, although there's something oddly sexual about his beard hanging from the saddle.
