Wald 3133 Front Quick Release Bicycle Basket with Bolt on Clamp (14.5 x 9.5 x 9 Black) – Reviews

The build quality is pretty solid – HOWEVER. If your handlebars are wider than average, it’s not going to mount. This will not mount to a GMC Denali Road Bike. It mounts where the knuckles are which is almost an inch wide. The included hardware won’t do it. But for cruisers and most bikes with 5/8 of an inch, it’s a very nice looking basket.

I did a month of shopping for front bicycle baskets for my Schwinn beach cruiser.
Here’s what I love about this basket..

1.) It mounts on your handlebars around the gooseneck, which keeps it suspended away from the frame. Other baskets lay against the frame and scratch or rub the finish off of your bike.

2.) The setup of this removable basket is quite ingenious, detatches in a blink of an eye, but remains safely attached until you remove it.

3.) If you choose not to use the basket, the mount is not unsightly at all.

4.) The basket sits high enough which allows you to mount a headlight on the fender with plenty of room to spare.

The name plate on the font of the basket also has a nice retro look to it. All in all.. a great product. I really can’t find anything wrong with it. I highly recommend it to anyone who needs a nice detatchable basket.

This basket is made in America. (Its always nice to see we still make some stuff here). Build quality is pretty good, not great. I noticed there were a couple spots on the basket that slipped through quality control. A bad weld in front, leaving a sharp spot on the end of one of the spokes where it wraps around. A little sanding with a metal file fixed this. And there is another spoke that is slightly bent and welded at an angle, simply cosmetic. Both minor problems, but I noticed them right away, so you would think that someone packing this would have seen this right away as well. So much for American workmanship.

Putting it on the bike took all of 5 minutes. Very straightforward, all you need is a philips screwdriver and a set of pliers or adjustable wrench to hold the lock nuts while tightening.

The basket is a little smaller than the typical grocery store basket, but I wouldn’t suggest taking it off the bike to use in the store as it has a single handle which mounts in the middle. So you’ll have a balancing act to perform if carrying by the handle as any heavy object on one side will tip the basket. Also, the holes are rather large in the basket, so it should be used to carry things that are already in bags, small items could easily fall through. I never planned on removing it from the bike so this isn’t a problem for me. I suggest putting a small luggage lock on the basket to keep it from being stolen when unattended (clipping the handle in the downward position prevents the basket from being removed).

My main purpose for this basket was to be able to make quick trips to the local grocery store, video store, etc. leaving the basket on the bike, and for that it is perfect. A two handle basket design with mesh screen would be better for anyone wishing to use this basket off the bike to carry stuff. Just my 2 cents.
