Review on Banjo Brothers Market Pannier: Your Perfect Solution for Convenient Shopping and Commuting by Michael Tucker

Update I have returned the product after a few more tries. It was too loose on my basket and I couldn't attach it in a way that was painful to put on and take off. It's a well-made part, but the protection on it is a joke. Not recommended. This is an early review - just received it today. I needed a basket that could be easily put on and taken off the bike and used as a tote bag with shoulder and/or hand straps. It also had to be big enough to fit in my 32L Gregory backpack, which is my daily commute to work bag. After a long search, I decided on the BB market basket. First impression - the product is very well assembled from seemingly durable materials. It attaches easily to my bike rack (tube rack for super tourists) and holds my 32L backpack well. I can barely fit the cover on my pack unless it's stuffed full, but there are large gaps on the sides so it doesn't offer any protection from the elements. I have a separate drybag basket for rainy days. I'm concerned about the safety of the mount. I've already fallen off my bike once on one of the two 15 minute rides I've taken since I got it when I pulled it off a short curb and onto the street. He also partially drove away earlier on a small bump. Blame it on the underside of the mount being too simple - it's difficult to get the right tension. I can hook it to the bottom of my luggage rack, but one day it won't be fixed anymore. If I shorten the loop on the thick elastic cord to tighten it, it becomes difficult to pull the cord across the bottom of the post. To be honest, the design is not very good - the elastic cord is very thick and difficult to tie accurately, so it is difficult to get the exact length you want. I will continue to adjust it but unfortunately I think it will always be a little loose. It could be a really impressive basket if it had a smarter attachment system. Rhinowalk and Rockbros bags use clips that snap and close on the stand and an adjustable bottom clip that can be easily opened by pulling a fabric loop. This system makes it easy to place and remove bags from the rack. I would easily pay 10€ more for this inexpensive option. Maybe it will be a little less durable, but it will be possible to offer interchangeable clips. In general, I really like the case, despite small flaws. I knew it would be like this when I ordered so I wasn't surprised. I'll update this review later when I spend more time on it.
