A bicycle wheel system is disclosed. The bicycle wheel system comprises a bicycle wheel and at least one wheel cover. The bicycle wheel comprises attachment means for removably attaching the wheel cover to the bicycle wheel. The wheel cover is interchangeable with wheel covers of different dimensions (e.g. rim depths, profiles and/or widths) such that the wheel cover fitted to the bicycle wheel is suited to the riding conditions. The wheel cover can be chosen to minimise the aerodynamic drag of the bicycle wheel and/or how readily the bicycle wheel might catch a cross-wind, which can be two competing considerations. The wheel cover is quick and simple to secure to the wheel and, in an embodiment of the present invention, can be interchanged with another wheel cover (or simply removed) without removing the bicycle wheel from the bicycle frame.
