HOMEE Folding Rear Bike Basket Wire Mesh Fold-Up Detachable Front Bag Rear

I've been using rear bag panniers for years on my Dutch bike and have not enjoyed the drag they impart in my windy coastal town. Having switched to these folding baskets I can feel the ease in my ride as the headwinds pass smoothly through the folded baskets. Beware the spring loading on these baskets-they will whack your fingers hard and painfully if you just release the hook mindlessly, so I open them slowly holding onto the sides to prevent that. Each basket holds a full grocery bag, easily 10-20 lb weight capacity each. I've banged the open basket into various objects and so far they have retained their shape. As well, I like the look of the black folded baskets on the bike, it looks higher tech and cleaner than hanging bags. Great value for the price. Edit 2/23: still working well, no issues 11 months of use. Warning! These are like huge mouse traps and will open faster than you can react causing a painful finger whack! Always open mindfully, slowly. Highly recommend!

I wanted something to carry my library books or even a small trip for groceries and I saw this and watched the video and it is perfect. I hooked it on one side of the back carrier on my bike and you can keep it folded flat and then just push in slightly to release a simple latch and it totally flips open. Easy to fold up and relatch it. The only thing that is a negative is that it comes with thick pliable plastic tubes to slide over the brackets that hang it on the bike so it doesn't scratch the bike but I couldn't get them all the way on and ended up cutting them down the middle and rewrapping them over the brackets and it worked out just fine. I would highly recommend this item.

It’s a pretty simple basket to use. Not easy to set up because the plastic rubber sleeves are extremely hard to get on the hooks and the screws that secure the hooks to the handle bars come loose easy. I lost the first screw the first week and the second screw the second week. But it’s fine because I take the basket off every other time I use it. Would be better if there was some sort of a latch to secure it or maybe a better design. Besides that no complaints. It gets the job done just fine and even folds up. Beware when you open it. The first time I opened it the basket snapped open so fast that I smacked my hand pretty bad. You learn how to carefully open it after a while. I would recommend, but I have to admit there might be better out there. There is a bit of room for improvement.

These have large curved hooks made to fit over handlebars. I got two baskets and hung them in back off of the left and right side of the rack I installed (upon which is bolted another larger folding basket). There are two short, wide plastic tubes included to cover the hooks. Put a few drops of lubricant (oil, petroleum jelly, whatever works for you) into each tube so they slide easily over the metal hooks. If you're hanging them to the sides of your rear bike rack use three or four zip ties to fasten the basket(s) firmly to the side of the rack to prevent it from swinging out.

Used the basket once or twice and the screws and nuts holding the basket down onto your rack already fell off from being too loose. I had tightened them before use and didn’t expect to have to retighten them after each bike ride. I like the basket and it seems sturdy but the faulty screws and nuts make it really hard to use because now I’m concerned the basket could fly right off the bike. I contacted the company to see if they’d send me a new set of screws and nuts since it clearly seems like it should be meant to last more than two rides. They said no, tough luck to you, we won’t send you anything. Wasn’t very helpful. So I’ll have to find my own screws and nuts at a local store even after spending full price on this basket set. Beware to tighten the nut and screws often.

Purchased this wire basket to go on my folding bike’s rear rack and it’s the perfect size! I love that it’s collapsible, which makes storage easy when I fold the bike and store it in my trunk. The plastic tubes that are included are great for keeping scratches off my bike but they were super difficult to put on, gave up after I was just above the hole for screws. Like others mentioned, the bolt to the screws doesn’t stay tight so I will try the zip tie option which should work well. Overall, after taking the basket out for its first run, I was really happy that I bought it.

Sure they may need a few zipties but these things work great! They are so awesome to have when packing up my ebike for an adventure! Very sturdy and hold lots of stuff! I have even over expanded them where the side hooks come apart from the main part of the basket and I just use bungee cables to keep everything secured! I'd order a replacement if I ever had to for sure!

The design of the product is great. However, you need to do some additional work for these baskets to function well: Pros: 1. It easily hangs on the side of bike like a pannier and can be folded when not in use. It's much cheaper than good panniers at a similar carrying capacity. It is also fixed on the bike so won't be easily stolen. 2. It fits the standard paper shopping bag or reusable bag of the same size perfectly. So you can simply drop the shopping bags into the basket and go. No need to repack the grocery or use bungee chords to fix the bags onto the bike. 3. They keep the center of gravity low. You can easily transport a lot of grocery without making the bike unwieldy. 4. If you have a rear child seat, two baskets below the seat serve perfectly as spoke guards. Even if the child kicks around, you don't need to worry about its feet getting caught in the wheel. The basket is also wide enough to protect the child from tipping over. Cons: 1. I got a sharp tip on one of the welding sites. The sharp tip can be easily removed by a plier. But the producer should do this rather than leaving it to the customer. 2. The basket just hang on the bike, not fixed. It jumps around when you ride the bike. I put some rubber tape between the basket and the bike, then use some plastic zip ties to fix the basket in place. 3. The spring is not tight so that the basket does not fully open. You need to rely on the grocery to push the basket to the fully open state, otherwise it again rattles. I ended up fixing them in the open configuration with zip ties because I mainly use that bike to haul groceries and kids.

Utile e pratico cestino, si può usare sia come cestino anteriore che posteriore, ottima qualità.

Product is great to carry shopping or hand bag but i personally use it to carry my puppy around.

It was a bit tight of a squeeze to get this basket on the handle bars of my Jetson Bolt Pro, but once on, it fits snugly at the top and I didn't need to use their clamps to secure the basket hooks. However, when I put their plastic pieces over the basket hooks, I had their plastic pieces extend over the ends (like they tell you to not do, as that position blocks the screw holes) since I didn't need to clamp it on and this position of the plastic pieced prevented the hooks from scratching the handle bars as I squeezed the basket over them. I then used a zip tie to attach the bottom of the basket to the head tube (putting a piece of plastic in-between to avoid scratches and noises). Needless to say, I won't be casually removing this basket. I gave the basket 3 stars for "easy to install" since the above was mostly improvised, but you may find it easier to install depending on your bicycle. I'm also still able to fold down the handle bars with the basket in place. The basket springs open when you unfold it (watch your fingers!) and will likely rattle while open. I can fold it even though its mounted to the front, and when folded, it seems clamped enough that hopefully it won't rattle when riding. Overall i'm happy with it, although I'm awaiting warmer days to test it on an actual ride.

Easy to install. I had to move my controls (speedometer etc as my bike is electric) over to the side because the basket hangers were too close together to fit on either side and they aren’t moveable. But all in all I’m happy with the basket.

It’s fine, fits my kids backpack when we’re biking to school, but it’s a bit noisy, the springs are vicious if you’re not careful, and there’s no way to attach it without scratching your bike 😬
