Cover for a Barefaced Big Twin cab

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi,

I've ordered a Barefaced Big Twin and I'd like to get a good quality cover for it. I've read about Lecover and Tuki, but those are located in the US and ordering one of those to Finland could get quite expensive (customs fees and VAT, almost doubling the price). Can anyone recommend a company that makes custom fit covers that's located in Europe, or preferrably in an EU country?

I have their covers - they can make pretty much anything based on their enquiry forms. Can't hurt to ask.

There is Bulgarian company with very reasonable prices and good quality. The covers are all custom made and I know that they ship to other EU countries frequently.
You can see their products and contact them here:

Otso, you can order a Roqsolid cover and get it shipped to us, and then we'll pack the cab it in when it departs, so you can save on the overseas shipping etc.

Sounds like the best way - I got a cover from Roqsolid for my Big Twin, and it fits perfectly. No measuring needed from my side.

Bought my covers from Roqsolid and couldn't be happier with their quality and service. Pay the extra and buy the upgraded lined material, I'm glad I did.

I provided them with the dimensions in a drawing of my cabinet (810) because they hadn't made one for this model before and they absolutely nailed it. The cover for my tube head also turned out fantastic.

I have both Tuki and Studio Slips covers and both are nice but I like the Studio Slips marital better and their covers fold up easier when not in use.

+1, this sounds like a good idea.

Thanks for the answers! I think I'll go with the Roqsolid and do as Alex suggested.

Hey Joe (there's a cue for a song) did your spell checker do a fix for you or did you marry the cover???
