Review on Junior Bike Basket With Front Handle Bar - Colorbasket 02171 by Jason Pinkney

I got a really stellar deal on a "new" bike locally for my almost 10 year old's birthday, so wanted to use the savings to purchase fun accessories. My daughter requested a new bike because her old one was 1.) too small, and 2.) too childish (was bright pink, had streamers, and had a princess logo on the side). I wanted her new bike to be fun and functional, yet sophisticated. I was going to order a kid-sized specific basket for her new bike in a generic white because one of her older friends has a similar one on her bike, and she travels to and from friends' houses in our subdivision quite a bit so wanted her to be able to transport things more easily, but some of the reviews on the smaller baskets was that they were just too small and didn't grow with their child. I purchased this one instead which was more of a in-between size (larger than a kid size, but smaller than an adult size) and it is absolutely perfect. I'll try and upload a picture at some point. It just fit between her handlebar breaks and while it's deeper, there are still a few inches between the bottom and her tires, on her new 24" bike. I also purchased her a new, matching helmet as well. When she unwrapped her bike (wrapped in clearance 4th of July tablecloths), she was so ecstatic and the first thing she commented on was the basket. "This is just the basket I wanted for a new bike, and I love my new bike so much!" Oddly enough for a barely 10 year old, she also commented on the material of the basket. She liked that it wasn't real wicker and figured it'd stand the test of time better. I didn't even know she really knew what real vs. fake wicker was. Hehe. Anyway, it's a great addition for a great value and makes her used bike look nicer and classier without looking juvenile.
