Front basket for 31.8mm bars?

Does anyone know of a sturdy front basket that will mount onto 31.mm bars? I'm turning my old Dolan into a commuter/errand bike and struggling to find something that will fit on the Deda Zeros it has on it.

I realise this would probably be easier with risers, but this is a parts bin build so it's kinda run what you brung.

Ideally, something along these lines: https://www.bricklanebikes.co.uk/wald-1392-woody-large-basket-silver. It needs to be sturdy enough to take a bag with a laptop/shoes etc.

Wald is confusing, some places claim the 1392 fits up to a 31.8mm bar and others say it's only up to 25.4mm.

The Wald bar attachments are multi-fit - there are different slots to make the bar clamp fit different diameters. They do need to fit to the axle or a low fork mount as well though.

Cheers, I'll give a Wald a bash then.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
