Editorial Review:
The Wald 582 sets the standard for ingenuity when it comes to rear baskets. Mounting to the side of almost any rear rack, this nimble basket is the perfect size for packing 1-2 bags of groceries while balancing your load. When not in use, the base of the basket pivots up allowing the side walls to collapse. A simple clamp at the top of the side panels keeps everything secured while the basket is folded up to one inch thick
Customer Reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Fantastic! Comment: I use this product almost every day and I still am impressed by its functionality as well as its durability. The only drawback was the position on the cover sheet. "Do not" position the baskets as in the drawing unless you want to shave the skin off of the back of your legs and heels. Make sure you check your "foot travel" before riding after installation. Hence, once that crucial adjustment is made, you're set for life. I'm absolutely sold on this wonderful product. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Comment: They work great and were easy to install, a great size and fold away when not needed. It was only difficult to tighten the screws once they were in place. Customer Rating: Summary: Best thing for my bike yet. Comment: I installed these yesterday on my bike and used them today and love them. They are perfect for carrying just about anything when commuting and were really easy to install. The advice to set them back a little ways on your carrier is good, otherwise you hit your legs on them. Also the tip to install them loose and then see how they feel when you ride before tightening them is good as well. Overall I think they are perfect for transporting items and are very sturdy. Customer Rating: Summary: So Very Convenient Comment: I absolutely love these baskets. I bought two sets, one for me and one for my partner. We no longer drive so some sort of storage was a must and these work beautifully. Combined there's more than enough room for all our groceries, or anything else we've needed so far. That includes bags of potting soil, live plants, large bags of glass bottles, crushed cans, newspaper bundles, and even a belt sander and an oven rack!
They were very easy to install. Sometimes the folding hinges get stuck a little but I bet a bit of WD40 would fix that if it started to really bother me.
I can't imagine anything else even coming close being able to handle all the things I strap into and onto my bike and then still giving me that nice slimness when I have nothing to carry at all. These are great. Customer Rating: Summary: Wald Basket Comment: Great racks that I use to for trips to the grocery, shopping, or camping. I would highly recommend.
