Review on Powder Coated Steel Bike Basket With Handles And Mesh Bottom - Colorbasket 02270 by Tom Lawson

When I was installing this basket, which is a nice-looking product, I noticed it was really easy to remove from the bike. At first, I thought that was a great feature--just raise the two basket handles, and it is easy to unhook from the base (to take into a store for shopping, for example). It's much easier to remove from the bike than our other bike baskets that are removable. However, the first time using the basket, it fell off of the bike when going over a bump in the road. So, I attached the bike to the base with zip ties, and zip-tied the handles down so they won't raise. The basket is no longer removable. My advice to shoppers is to avoid this basket if you want a removable basket, and get a different brand. If you don't need a removable basket, realize that you will need some zip-ties to keep this on the bike, or buy something else. To the company? Work on the design to make sure that what looks good in theory actually works in practice.
