I have the Bestop Trek NX top right now and want to know if I buy this if I can put that back on over top (don't have a garage) for weather?

I run mine this way but you have to put two holes in it to put the rear Trex Top bar through. I peel the net back and put the windows on but live in Washington where it gets cold so sometime have to fight to get a good seal. In warm weather areas it would be fine here you might get a leak if your jeep is parked on a incline

I keep mine outside as well, much to my dismay, and that of my friends. The bike is stored in MA under this cover (and I've had a few other of this same basic cover for most of the last ten+ years. My bike still looks brand new, despite being a 1994 VFR750. Is it as good as a garage? No. But it does a great job at its intended purpose. When I wear this one out (just bought this new one last fall), I'll buy another.

Yes, the Top will be Hot & for a long while. I would not recommend It.Unless U can somehow get an exhaust Fan in behind Blow exhaust out or up.

If you take your tires off the bike will fit in, or you can hang out the tire over the wall. We bought the lid and stored stuff on top of the pod as well such as a cooler and a kennel. there is ample room to put stuff on top, without exceeding its capacity. WE are very pleased with this purchase.

I'm a dry and 40+ degree rider so I have no idea about rain and snow. I will say if you are going to clip it to a saddle bag then you need to zip tie it to the loop. I lost mine on the first ride. It is contoured enough around its waist that you can get one around horizontally then two vertically around the back that go through the loop. I flipped my bike upside down to change a flat and never made it home with it. I immediately order 2 more as soon as I noticed it missing a couple of weeks later. My old Walmart special light was about dead on my birthday ride last November and one of my group had this light. It stood out way more than any of the other lights in the group.

The sack the bike parka is stored in is separate from the cover itself. The cord you are seeing at the top of the bike is to take the slack out of the cover if it fits too loosely on your bike. Hope this helps.

No just follow the instructions make sure your top is clean! My husband installed this not me but it did not take him long. You may have to hold pieces in place for a few minutes. I can feel the difference in hot weather and cold. Makes the sound system sound better also. Good product.

I chain the rear end of my bike to the bike rack and put the cover over most of it. I tried it with the front end in the rack so that I could cover the rear fully, but the bike moves and leans too much when I secure it that way. I prefer securing the front of the bike, so I am thinking through how to keep the bike straight when securing the front. I may secure the front wheel to the frame with a solid piece so it doesn't pivot and lean. Other than that, the bike cover is the best one I've ever had - wind, pouring rain and heat have not impacted it to date. I hope that some of this helps. Perhaps others can provide insights on how best to secure the front of the bike to the rack so that it doesn't move/lean so that the rear can be fully protected by the bike cover. Thank you.

If you are going to use this bag you totally need a Topeak rack. I think one of the guys at work has a Novara, and the track is slightly wider.

Hi:The fabric is very sturdy and doesn't stretch but the over BikeParka should be big enough to cover your bike unless it's necessary to pull it all the way to the ground. I leave a handlebar mirror attached to my bike and am still able to cover the whole bike. I can pull the cover more than halfway over the front tire but not all the way to the ground.

I honestly don't know? It is just a slip over cover which is open at the bottom with a nice heavy seam on top. I am thinking you might have to find a way to secure it with the bike hanging by the wheels? Sorry I can't be of more help. My grandchildren's bicycles are just on the floor in the garage on their kickstands. It fits nicely over them.

I dont think they would just sell the top, and y would u need it anyways. Use something else as a protection.

Sorry I don't have a Trek. You might want to contact the manufacturer or your local bike shop. I can tell you it really rides nice and cushy!

I own this top and when I go to look at it from the listing (54722-35) it shows that it is in stock. I hope this is a helpful answer. If you buy it, I suggest watching the youtube video from Bestop for better instructions than the printed ones. Also a friend to assist you will cut your install time in half. Good luck.

If it's mounted under the seat heat could be the issue. I mounted mine on the frame down low where the wind helps to keep it cool. Only the waterproof, not water resistant models will work in that location as it's exposed to the weather.

Definitely, if the supplier doesn't offer them then you need to get them or they have nothing to attach to. I don't recommend any other aftermarket ones as the bestop ones are the factory setup & seal tight. As for the top, it takes time & lots of patience. Don't force the zippers! Let the sun warm up the fabric and use lots of zipper wax (like for a dive suit) or just use chapstick. Hope this helps.
