Good size
Ultimately it’s what I needed although I had to put some bends in the legs and use spacers to clear some of the weird geometry in my forks and caliper. Having the u lock holder is quite nice as I can never seem to find a good place to keep a lock. Pleasantly surprised it fit the big kryptonite.

Grocery getting on a race bike
Came with everything I needed to install it and I love it. Cargo net is dope too. It is welded weird where it comes together but still seems strong. DOESNT WORK WITH QUICK RELEASE. Will mount on the forks by the axle still but itâs not going to be as dependable.

Just a bit off.
Very sturdy and looks good but it sits just a bit to one side and isn’t centered. Not a huge deal but it drives me nuts when I’m ridding. I’m a bit picky on my fixed bikes looks. Should have went with the mash rack.

The only issue with this basket on a fixed bike is: the tire has about a 1 inch clearance from the basket. When my girlfriend puts her backpack in, it sags a little and rubs on the tire. I plan to cut some sheet metal to size and zip tie it to the basket so it creates a platform and also keep the belongings dry is the ground is wet.

Not designed for quick release axles
Looks like it would be a good rack if it was designed to fit most consumer bikes, but it’s not. Virtually no installation instructions available. Manufacturer’s description is unclear and misleading at best, since it makes no mention of the relevant limitations on axle installation. Designed to mount on solid bolted axles, not quick-release or thru axles. Can be modified to work using eyelets or somewhat insecurely mounted on QR axles, but requires some effort and is dependent on individual bike fit.

Updated: One kinda major flaw
My rack broke twice. One arm broke, paid a friend to weld that back on. Then both arms broke months later. I think it’s not suited for suspension forks but this isn’t mentioned anywhere.I like the construction of this product but I do notice one flaw in the design that kinda bothers me. The u lock holder not being centered throws off the equilibrium of the rider a bit when doing turns and when simply placing the bike on the kickstand. It will swing to the side and nearly fall over if too much weight is inside. 3.5 stars honestly.

Sturdy
The basket is very sturdy and heavy duty. It holds a case and half of beer!! though the steering is a bit sluggish with that much weight. It’s easier to install if you take your wheel off, but it will go on with the wheel in place. It’s perfect for bring home take out.

I was disappointed to see the adjustable leg broken off as I went to install, I do have to say that it looks to be a well made and Exactly what I wanted profuct but I got a Lemon… I have been so busy I forgot about this until I had a request to review… Please dont take my issue as whats the norm, the product looks great and this could have ocurred in transit
