  • Is the best budget front basket still Wald?

    (for supermarket trips on a hybrid not to win raddavist)

    Also if you had to pick between fixing to the mid fork rack mounts vs dropout rack mounts, which would you choose?

    Cheers

  • If you have a front rack already, or can get a reasonably priced one, the IKEA Pleja basket zip-tied on works well. I've got one bike with that on, and one with a Wald 198 - they are equally good for carrying, the same footprint so my bag is transferable, but the 198 is slightly deeper and comes with its own mounting hardware.

    Obviously just ditch the divider etc.

  • No front rack.

    It's a recommendation for a friend, so some thing straight forward and OTP.

    Also is "the" Wald, the Wald 1352 Medium Plus Basket? I didn't actually realise there were a whole load.
