Review on ๐Ÿšด Bushwhacker Omaha - Ultimate Bicycle Grocery Panniers for Convenient Cycling with Rack Basket & Rear Bag โ€“ Sold as Pair by Ethan Delaney

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Sturdy collapsible baskets, dangerously loose

They work great when full of weight products, but are unreliable when empty - even with a bungee, there just isn't enough downforce to hook the hooks to keep attached. On my second ride with them, one of them bounced off the slightest bump on a well-paved road, tangling my rear spokes and causing me to stop abruptly in the middle of traffic. Luckily I didn't get hit and the bike wasn't badly damaged, but the basket itself was badly mangled. I was lucky enough to have extra bungees with me to protect him from further damage. They are strong and fold well, but I wouldn't recommend using them without additional tools to hold them in place. And there are a lot cheaper options out there if you're going to mod them anyway. I spent a lot of money on these because the reviews said they wouldn't snag your spokes and pose a hazard. Definitely not recommended, if you want something that can be easily removed and held securely, look for something with a decent clip mechanism instead.
