This is a great basket. It it very sturdy, and both large and durable enough to carry heavy loads. It has an exceptional level of finish and craftsmanship. The finish is very bright and clean. Wald, the manufacturer, has a long history of making bicycle products and I am pleased to own this one. I own other baskets made by them, some getting quite old, and they are all reliable. Perhaps the nicest thing about this basket is its size. It is not as tall as many common "grocery" type baskets. When installed you will see the headbadge area still looks graceful and neat. I like that!
One wrinkle: the metal straps which hold the basket on the handlebars are quite long. If your steering stem is up as high as it can go, it may not be an issue. For me they work, but some riders will probably have to do some tinkering to get this basket to fit. On a Schwinn 17" or 19" frame with the steering stem set low, the bottom of the basket will hit the front tire. If you like your handlebars closer to the frame, the basket will have to stick out, out, out away from the headbadge to clear the tire. Personally, I like the basket straps hanging down, almost vertically, so the cargo's weight is closer to the bike's center of gravity. Also, the rods which support the basket come with two holes on the axle side. Not a lot options for basket height. If you don't mind drilling the holes in the position you need, you'll be fine.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great, except it didn't come with fasteners, June 21, 2010

It's very large and it has a great classic design. The only thing about it that I didn't like is that it didn't come with nuts & bolts to attach it to the handlebars or to the axle, so we had to go find our own from a hardware store. Gave it 4 stars regardless.
