Flywheel dust cover? (C2 Model D)
Flywheel dust cover? (C2 Model D)
I just got my C2 model D, and I am lucky enough to have space to save it, with the two parts separated, in a closet by my carport. The thing is that some dust can get into the closet over time, so having a cover would be ideal - but, since I can only put the rower away when separated, the most common covers do not work, since they are designed for the rower when fully put together. Hence my question:
Has anybody ever come across a flywheel-only dust/outdoor cover?
I've searched online for a while, but without any luck.
Thanks in advance

The only one available isn't for a split ergo.

Use big beach towels or a sheet.

Get a woven polyethylene bag as provided to ag operations selling shelled or ear field corn for deer bait or squirrel and bird feeders. If you’re located Blighty, Polynesia, or similar antipodal loci, please disregard. If you’re in whitetail or muley country, we share a fund of experience and a hint is all that’s necessary. These bags breath which is good in an unheated garage or outbuilding. Much better than polythene dropcloths, coated tarps, garbage bags, or damp-drawing burlap.

I use a lined plastic table cloth. Wrap it around the flywheel and secure. Inexpensive solution.

Hope you are in a dry climate. Humidity can lead to rust. Not a problem for me in Calif, but if I lived in, say, Florida, especially near the ocean, I would take extra precautions.

Thanks for the advise - I am in California, although at an area with some humidity - but the outdoor closet is well insulated.
