Took Romeo for our first Mommy/Doggy bike ride today.
He didn't like the basket until we started moving, the he just kicked back and let the "breeze" go through his hair. Maybe when mommy gets in a little better shape, we'll be able to work up to the "wind" in his hair!
My basket came with the main attachment strap that goes in the bottom of the basket in addition to 2 smaller adjustable straps that attach to rings at the top on either side. I suppose they could be used for an additional dog (if very light dogs) or for keys or maybe just to add a little more security to your pup.
I chose to leave to top down for now until Romeo and I both get used to it.
I did not get a picture of us on the road today, but I am using the basket with a 7lb. Pomeranian and have it attached to a Huffy Cranbrook Cruiser (mint green/light tan). Both are pictured.
Overall the basket felt very sturdy (not the one pictured on the bike, we returned that one) and Romeo was very happy perched in the middle looking at the big world ahead even if mommy wasn't that steady. It was a bit of a shaky ride for us, but that was due to my tremors and the basket actually seemed less shaky than I felt. I also liked that the basket came with a one year warranty.
Jerry is going to make some adjustments to the seat tomorrow so hopefully our next ride will be much smoother.
Assembly was fairly simple once you figured out what direction everything needed to go in on the bike. Instructions are non existent (not even a one sheet picture) so you may want to check out the website for the instructions.
We purchased from amazon for $59.99 and the Sunshade Cover was included, however I saw this on other sites for a comparable price that did not include the cover so be sure and check.
Alternatively, if you would prefer a little more security for your pup or want to bring another pet with you (such as a cat, rabbit, teacup pig, etc...) you can also get a wire basket top for this basket that gives you a little more security that the open sided top. Amazon carries the optional top for under $20 Solvit 69996 Wire Safety Cage for Wicker Bicycle Basket.

This is absolutely worth every penny! My 6 lb Pomeranian Winnie absolutely loves going for bike rides with me. She will literally go up to my bike and put her front paws on the frame and stare at me. Before I decided to purchase this basket, Winnie was having to make due with a small black metal basket that was not meant for dogs at all. I had to tie her leash to my handlebars (for safety of course!) and place a small blanket in the basket to make it somewhat comfortable for her. Then when I searched for "pet, bicycle, basket" on Google, Solvit Tagalong Wicker Bicycle Basket was the first thing that popped up in the shopping search.
Before installing it on the bicycle, I placed the basket on the floor and coaxed Winnie into it. She loves it! I left her in there to get comfy and adjusted and found that she can move around and lay down comfortably. However, when I placed the canopy on the basket her ears went back a bit and I could tell she was a bit more timid and maybe even nervous. I will probably gradually introduce the canopy if I plan on ever using it just so I don't make her anxious.
The installation is a breeze and is very sturdy. I am extremely careful with Winnie and am much like a frantic mother when it comes to making sure that she is safe on these bike rides, so I would not praise something that I did not 1000% trust that it would keep my puppy safe.
Bottom line, yes it is maybe more than you were planning on spending on a bicycle basket for your dog, BUT in the long run it will pay off because it is a good quality product that is constructed well and has your pet's best interest at hand.

The part that goes around the handle bars was very difficult for me to attach, but once that was done it was easy to assemble. It is very sturdy and much safter than the other one I purchased for my dog. My little dog really enjoys riding around our neighborhood in this basket.
