Maybe I'm just cheap but I just use one of the picnic blanket things Costco sells for $15, and you also get a blanket from it.

The ones on my knolly? The ENVEs? That is so cool. I am actually very happy with the M730. I had some issues with the previous gen but these work very well laced to an i9 Hydra.

I have the Mopar soft tri-fold bed cover and would like to utilize a bike pad like this. Does anyone know if a bike will fit in the bed with that cover folded up or will the cover need to be take off?

How many inches does the folded top stick into the bed?

Update, I got some of these and they are very awesome. Very easy to take on and off too. Thought MTB season is starting up so I suspect they will be on more than off for a few months.

Try a small bunji cord on the two front wheels bringing them together and nothing will contact the truck. Zoom in on the photo below

Hi all....new Gladiator Rubicon owner.....and avid Mtn Biker.

Have question hoping you could help answer as it looks like you have what i am trying to set up. I am looking at getting a bike Pad to transport bikes to/from trail, but also want to get a bed cover. Understand that the bed cover might have to be one that rolls like you have so its small enough to keep open to fit bikes.

My question: Does your cover fit on and "close" with the pad remaining on the lift gate, or do you have to remove the bike pad to close the bed cover?

When I had the Mopar twi-fold, it would close (albeit not perfectly flat). The Bak4 Revolver won't lock because it's much tighter & secure. And the end of the day, with the exception of the really expensive hard covers, if anyone wants in, they'll get it.

did a tri fold cover work and have enough space to still put bikes in back when folded flat, or did you have to fold up vertical? i am in the discovery mode and need to determine what i need to buy. Not sure i will be getting a full security cover anyway, more of a deterrent cover (ie; soft).....

That is actually why I went away from the Twi-Fold. My Gravel & MTB wouldn't fit straight, so it either pushed up to the point it disconnected the cover at the hinge (had to reconnect when folding back down) or put it vertical which is awful when driving with no top/doors. You need a roll-up...Tri-Folds won't work.

Perfect, thanks !

I now need to determine a soft cover that wont break my bank and can still fold up wiht the bike pad.

Fox Launched the Overland pad. Seems to be solid and measures perfect for the Gladiator trunk (49”)
