  • Only became aware of V Barker recently (someone resurrecting one on here? )... Always something special about them...

  • You would be very, very surprised at the deal I got on that bike. It has full pump pegs, a lamp mount on the fork, and loads of other small touches. I am very, very impressed at the build quality too.

    I cannot get the basket any lower - the axle mounted stays won't clear the rounded shape of the forks near the stays. I might try to mount the stays inside the fork to see if that gives me any more options.

    Maybe I should just get one of those growler cages instead.

    You can mount to the same boss as the mudguard, use a longer screw and an aluminium stand-off spacer (or the female half of the chainring bolts, maybe you have some left over from the 1x conversion) to clear the round fork leg. Easy peasy! And more convenient than axle mounting
