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

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Love it. - Bike rack and bags

LOVE. Easy to turn on and off. Secure. Continuous. Can carry more weight than your bike is likely to like. Fold and close completely with a latch for rolling and storing. There is no need to regularly detach and reattach it unless you need to use the rack for another purpose. They hold a standard reusable grocery bag *filled to the brim* - far more groceries than you would fit in any bag if you put it in the back seat of your car because it won't fall out if you brake hard or slide around a tight turn. turn. So I'd say you can carry the equivalent of three brown grocery bags. Just make sure it's not 3 bags of water or a ton of drinks. Baskets can really take the weight. As said, your bike may not be happy if you do this on a regular basis. They easily fit into a full school backpack. Deep. Although the sidewalls are made of heavy nylon webbing and webbing, they are bordered and reinforced with metal rods. Extremely light. I had no issues with the hardware used to attach to the side of my rack. They don't "pop off" as some have mentioned here. You are very safe. But as we know, not all racks are the same and they have different overall dimensions depending on which one fits your bike frame. My stand is stable with a round tube frame. You are 100% safe for this type of shelf. There are also literally only 3 installation directions. One of them will tell you how to easily fix the situation when the bungee is not tight enough to secure the clamps. I don't think these are design flaws. I suspect if they pop out they just don't fit your rack or bike well, or the bungee hasn't been adjusted for a secure fit. It's obvious if they're loose before you even ride them once you understand that the bungee needs to exert enough tension under the rack's hooks to *securely* hold them in place. There was no way to jump out of proper tension. it said. I would honestly upgrade my rack for them if the issue was frame diameter. They are so perfect for my needs that I would have been worth it. I like that they are not screwed. I like that they are fully foldable. love depth. Love that they are open at the top like wire baskets but without the pain of "permanently" attaching them with screws. I like that it takes 15 seconds to install and uninstall. I've been using it almost every day to and from work for a couple of months for all business and there hasn't been a single problem. I've definitely restarted them as well. You can handle it, although I shouldn't with my bike. Hope that helps.
