Perfect size. Easy to take on and off. The liner has a zippered pocket that nearly the be perfect size. Cargo net is awesome. Could not be happier with this purchase.

Needs better screws to assemble basket. Very sturdy. Great quick connector works on both my bikes rear racks for easy interchange. Net cover is handy and secure. Carries my picnic, jacket, beach towel, binoculars, lock and water without having to unpack it all at every stop.

I just wanted to add photos of how the basket hits the frame of my Turris and the homemade bumpers I made using two squishy pieces of rubber and some electrical tape. They seem to solve the problem tho factory bumpers would be more durable.

The basket is well-built, up to a point. I suspect no one at corporate HQ has tried to assemble one, or seen a finished basket. Overall I like it. But here’s the issue: the small m5x10 screws that hold the basket halves together. I have attached a couple of pictures. Two problems: the screws are very tight to tighten, resulting in the allen head recess getting mangled about halfway, so you need to finish with vice grip pliers. And then once the screws are fully inserted … they don’t sit flush, they stand proud by quite a bit. Looks very unprofessional. Because the bars are round, i don’t know how you would do it differently, but the way it is now is unacceptable.

Sorry, no reviews match your current selections
Baskets like these are great for grocery-getting.
How does the bike* fit? Please share your height/size and the frame type you ordered, if applicable. 5'7", Revv 1, fit is spot-on.
CHEESY – basket is ok, the connect system rattles
Assembly is poor as the screws are difficult to work with. you need to have a better installation video and it needs to be current as an earlier version seems to exist.

Yes, the screws for assembling the Connect+ Basket could be a different type–round head screws instead of countersink screws would fit better (or perhaps better yet, the basket could be completely welded). And the screws can be difficult to tighten–I recommend leaving all the screws loose until you’ve started all of them and if any are difficult to tighten, then repeat backing off the screw as you then tighten some more until it is completely tight (this avoids stripping the screwheads or damaging the allen wrench).
I also recommend first watching the Connect+ Basket Assembly video and reading its entire webpage. For example, if you are installing the basket on a Prodigy v2, it recommends replacing the originally installed latch with the spare (thinner) latch that comes in the box. However, when I did that, the basket was not tight on the rear rack and wobbled. So I went back to using the original latch that provides a tight fit for the basket. However, you have to make sure it completely latches using the original latch on the rear rack of a Prodigy v2–this works out better for me having a tight basket that doesn’t wobble and I don’t intend to take it off very often.
The zippered pouch on the basket liner is nice for a wallet and/or cellphone–my cellphone barely fits so maybe the pouch could be a little bigger. And the netted cover is easy to use and prevents your stuff from falling out.
I’m glad I purchased the basket (although it’s a little difficult to assemble) because once I got it to fit snugly on the rear rack of my Prodigy v2, it makes it so easy to carry stuff.
Very well made
