Wow! Cali! Great pics!
Thanks for doing all those photos for us. Now I've got something more to add to my wish list, "things I don't really need, but want anyway cuz they're cool"

I just this moment got back from REI with one of these bags - I can't wait to see if I can actually attach it tomy handlebars - I really hope so - it looks to be the perfect size. I'm a little to burned out to fuss with screws and brackets right now - maybe tomorrow!
Thanks for all the great info, cali and tracy - it was very helpful
Keep calm and carry on...

My basket came and I love it! It's so cute! I can't use it yet (am grounded from the bike until Sunday, grrrrr!) (wait, just realized it looks like I'm 12-years old again - medical procedure yesterday grounded me, not my daddy, heh) but anyway, here is the basket:
It's spring-mounted to the rear bike rack, easy on and off so you can actually carry it in as a shopping basket if you want. I think I will so that I can see how things fit, and not buy more than I can carry!
Somewhere recently I saw a net that fits over baskets to keep things from bouncing out, but I evidently didn't bookmark it, grrrr.
I have more pics on my blog.

They also had a version that hangs on the front -- several versions, as a matter of fact. I just decided to go with the back version ... I don't remember why! The brand name is Kettler. They even had a bright-colored front basket I loved but it turned out it was made for a kid's bike or trike or something. LOL!

Hey.....what a great looking basket!!!
It looks very sturdy, too. Hmmm....that would REALLY be a good idea for my bike..... It would be nice to bike ride to the grocery store/veggie stand, rather than taking the car - or, walking....
(of course, I would need a super strong lock for my bike if I were to leave it outside where I live.....).
Hope you're feeling better soonmedical procedure yesterday grounded me !!
Have a peaceful day.
Denise
