I hope it's ok to post my little Eastern Germany shopper among all the £££ bikes in here,
yet this is indeed my winter / "functional" bike - and while on the subject of panniers and baskets and whatnot I was wondering if some of you might have some ideas..
..so you see there's front and back racks, alas they are both quite flimsy.
Well, the main problem with the one one the back is heel strike actually, so there isn't much one can do about this given the geo of the bike.
Was wondering how I could improve the situation in the front - looking for a useful solution that also does not look shit.
I guess some kind of basket would be useful - but how. Mounted at / hanging from the bars as well as sitting on the front rack would be ideal I guess, but have not found anything that would work / fit like that.
Any feedback appreciated!
