Review on Racktime Baskit Front Basket Black by Phil Kowal

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It will last a lifetime if you figure out how to mount it in this lifetime (thank god for youtube).

Bought for my alby email. Was almost too big for a bike (and the Elby is not a small bike either). You must have a Racktime bike rack, sold separately for about $40, to attach to your bike basket. The workmanship is solid, the snap mechanism works well. The basket is delivered without assembly instructions. Go to YouTube to watch the video. The mechanism is simple, but I had no idea how it worked until I saw the video. That's one star minus. I'm sooo tired of the current trend of not providing product instructions or with minimal instructions. Most of us are not German engineers. I can hardly drive a nail straight (okay, I can never drive a nail straight). Help us here.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Not fashionable
