Just got this yesterday so I will add another review in the future based upon use over time. Pros: - Good design (details below) - Good finish - Good hardware, welded construction - Flexibility - Great value for price - Mounting bracket looks good and unobtrusive with basket removed. Cons: - The screws should be stainless and the mounting bracket parts should be painted over the zinc. - lower support bracket would be better is pad and or column mount bracket was included and contact area was curved instead of flat (see solution below) - Since basket prevent mounting of headlight an adapter for mounting handle style headlamps would be nice. (See solution below) I read many reviews before purchasing this...I would have preferred stainless but not at the prices offerred. I would love this if it were offerred in a stainless version even for 50% more. I spent more time than needed to install as I made some improvements outlined below if your interested. These were needed for my particular application but suspect common to many users. I also included some pictures as it is not clear from all that I read of how things really go together. The main point being that the backet handle closest to the handlbars has an extended piece that engages the top loop of the mounting braket to hold it in place. A clever design. I found my finished assembly very stable and thought this was a strong basket with very quick release of the basket yet no compromise in solidity and no plastic. I suspect over time the contact areas will wear through the paint and rust will quicly set in...expecially since this is used on a beach bike riding on saltwater coastal areas. Some comments: -There is no grip on the carry handle and this will cause difficulty if used with a heavy load carrying for an extended time...but easy to improvise your own solution. -The initial installation of the basket required me to locate and press down hard causing the metal bars to flex slightly to get the handle tab to get into it's matching engagement loop (see picture of this to understand how basket is retained) This was okay since it provided for a very firm secure fit that would elliminate rattles. -The lower support bracket is intended to rest against something but in my case I felt this was a weak point of the design...it is flat and would rest against the steering post and slide...it should have a radius for centering. If installed per the instructions the handle bar support arm would not be solid enough or the basket would be resting on the fender. I installed it upside down (see pictures) and it rests on the collar of the top steering bearing...but I went one step further and used the reflector mounts that came with the bike as a support and then tie-wrapped the bracket to them...very solid...if the plastic will take the load...time will tell. -I found my handle bars had a larger radius than the rubber protectors so I placed the gap facing forward where there is no clamping force and as they compress they stretch into place without rippling. -I could no longer mount my headlight due to interference with basket and no mounting space on the bars. My solution (see pictures) was to saw slits in a champagne cork down one side to the middle and then 90 degrees up halfway. This then slides on the basket and has the same dimensions as the handle bar...it is water proof...it is clapped together by the headlight clamps...it can be moved for adjustment and will stay in place. This suggestion only requires one to celebrate with a bottle of champagne and keep the cork!
