There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The folding basket has a ramp that slides into a channel on the bike rack and locks into place with a quick locking system. It's a pretty slick system, and makes for an exact fit, placement, and it's super fast to attach/detach. There are NO worries about the basket or other accessories sliding around with this system.
Overall the basket seems to be pretty durable for a lightweight basket, and the fact that it conveniently folds down for travel and storage when not in use is an extremely nice feature not found in other baskets. You need to know that this basket is designed to carry items up to 19.8 pounds, I suspect if you overload it like you would a milk crate that it would not hold up very long.
The handle/rolling feature is also very nice, and not found in other baskets.
I'll just do a brief overview of PROs and CONs for review:
PROs
Attaching system/Locking system
Folds for travel/storage
Lightweight
Durable
Rolling system
CONs
May not hold up to heavy usage over a long period of time
Rattles during travel (not a big issue for me)
Only comes in the grey color
Overall - This is an awesome product, the only real complaint for me (and minor at that) is that it doesn't come in Black, which I think would look a lot better on my bike. But it does look good on my bike since it is grey anyway, so I'm probably just nit-picking here. This is a great basket for light shopping or carrying any items around 20 pounds.
The best thing is being able to carry it with a handle and wheels. It makes shopping so convenient in a way I did not expect. Instead of moving groceries from a cart to this basket, I can shop with it directly and then just attach it to the bike rack before returning home. The handle length is just ok for me but it might be a bit short for taller people (I'm 5'9").
Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase and would definitely get it again if I had the choice.
The first thing is that the design and construction are generally top notch. The plastic its made of is durable, and the way it slides on and locks into my Topeak Explorer Rack is fantastic. Only issue I've had there is that the mount to the rack for my rear light is a little tall, but that is more a personal setup issue and I can't fault the basket for that. The only other minor thing, and this is likely more to my bike design and seat height, I do have to move the basket back to open or close it as the attached trolley handle will catch the seat. Once I fix/shorten that light mount this shouldn't be a problem.
The basket isn't too much extra weight, even with the extendable arm and wheels, and it hasn't shown any signs of warping. When its opened I don't feel it impedes by sitting, and only a little more height is needed to swing my leg over the bike. In general opening it from its closed position is fairly easy, and if you didn't have the aforementioned tail light bracket issue you'll do it quickly. But it is also where I have some minor quibbles. The internal sliding locks are easy to use. Then there are the top supports. These rest within the side panel of the basket when not in use, then you pull them off to lock into the top of the basket sides to hold their shape. They do the latter fine, but I find securing them in place to the inside walls of the basket inconsistent and harder than it should be. Also, to help keep it straight, are 2 latches at the front (by the seat post) and I find these, or at least one, frequently doesn't stay locked in. This hasn't caused structural failure, but it does cause the basket to shift left and right more and is a little disheartening at the price of this.
As so last minor quibbles I will also say that I don't like that there doesn't appear to be a lock for the trolley arm, though it doesn't appear to be needed. There also is some small latch or hook on the back of it that doesn't seem to be for stability, and more so has seemed to be a place for bags or body parts to get caught (and can hurt) Maybe its for another connection point for a bungie/bungie net (something also not included that I feel could've been for the price) but it seems unnecessary and annoying.
But overall those really are minor complaints only worth 1 star off to me. This has really been an invaluable piece of my bike kit and incredibly durable holding tons of weight. Whether it be packs of beer on a beer run, my bag full of 2 computers and other equipment when commuting to work, or just a lighter pack of toilet paper, its handled it. On dozens of miles of road, and bumpy trails, and after months of use. I haven't felt off balance like a pannier can, even with it getting out of shape. And honestly, with it folded down I feel no need to take it off due to the limited weight, and not even feeling it when seated and closed. If you have a Topeak rack that this works with, it is the most stable and worthwhile peripheral I think you can get for it, and a necessity for the bike commuter.

Having nothing negative to say about it.
It arrived quickly, but one of the plastic clips designed to hold the sides rigid, was missing.
I contacted customer service to see if I could order them, and Nick shipped a new set out at no cost.
This thing is great, we take it to the grocery store, slide it off, extend the handle and use it as a shopping basket as we pull it behind us. Then we slide it back on the bike, lower the handle, and away we go.
This thing is awesome, and the best part is that it folds up when not using it, so it can easily be stored.

Pero intenta ser demasiadas cosas a la vez, y no se puede ser bueno en todo.
La idea de tener un carrito para arrastrar pesos suena excelente, pero luego resulta que solo admite 9 kg / 25 litros de carga: se me hace pequeño para una compra o un bulto grandes. Para una compra pequeña o mediana, como la que cabe en esta cesta, me sirve una cesta convencional, que admite 11-15 kg o más, en la que puedo poner una o dos bolsas grandes (y que es más barata, y que puedo fijar de forma permanente para que no me la roben). Por otra parte, para mí, 9 kg de carga / 25 L son algo que puedo llevar en las manos o a la espalda, y el carrito no me resuelve ninguna necesidad (porque no admite cargas pesadas, en las que un carrito sí me vendría bien).
El sistema de montaje tiene muy buena pinta... Hasta que descubres que sirve para algunos modelos de portaequipajes, no para todos (el fabricante indica que es compatible con el MTX QuickTrack system, seguramente sirva para alguno más, pero no sabría concretar para cuáles). Para el mío no servía: tenía que cambiar el portabultos o buscar un adaptador.
Y sobre el sistema de fijación, la verdad es que me preocupa que lo roben. No me gusta llevar cosas en la bici que se puedan soltar con facilidad, porque hay gente "graciosa" que te las desmonta por simple diversión. Y esta es una de ellas: es muy fácil de desmontar. Tendría que dejar esta cesta guardada en algún sitio y montarla en la bici cada vez que la voy a necesitar, o estaría penando por si me la roban, si en algún recado dejo la bici en la calle.
Así que, para mis necesidades, me resulta mucho más práctico llevar una cesta fija a la bici, que puedo asegurar al cuadro con un candado, que andar quitando y poniendo esta.
En cuanto a precio/calidad, realmente, no me parece cara porque se ve que es duradera y sólida. Hay soluciones más baratas, claro, pero no tan bien integradas.
Supongo que si tienes necesidades particulares (por ejemplo, para algún uso profesional, en el que sea útil llevar las cosas en el carrito para tener las manos libres, o si tienes dificultades para llevar pesos en las manos o a la espalda), esta cesta te pueda ser de utilidad. Para mí, no lo es.
La he devuelto.
