Just did a test ride to the farm market while paying extra attention to the rattle. Wald baskets were pretty quiet. I stopped, deployed them (still empty) and they did rattle a bit 'cross potholes, rail road tracks. Normally I'd avoid both but was trying to see what it takes to make them rattle. The rest of the short ride, pretty quiet.Originally Posted by badgercat
Of course they're not silent when "deployed" (though they are nearly so when folded up or fully loaded), but I just consider it part of the charm.
With $20 worth of local organic produce, 2 bike locks, small repair kit on the way back they were quiet over nearly everything.Ah, the things we do for TE
