People carried stuff
To carry stuff, you need baskets. Baskets are things of goodness and turn a bicycle into a very useful machine. I go to the Britomart farmers market on mine and the transport of an entire weeks fruit and veg is simplicity itself!
This bicycle has 3 baskets ... coool!
The nextbike bikes have baskets of course, as any true city bike should. They move independently of the handlebars in a very strange but entertaining way.
This guy need a basket
This guy has one
This bicycle has a sort of shelf instead ... still fit for purpose and quite styley too ... although apples or eggs may present a challenge!

Here is your traditional wicker basket
I just found out that the $3 Japan shop sells supermarket-like baskets which fits perfectly on the rear rack as illustrated by photo #2. It's not near as stylish as a wicker one but it does the job!
ReplyDeleteI can't recommend this kind of basket enough. It's super light, easy to clean, portable and it's a good judge of how much shopping you should be carrying.
For $5 a pop, it's a bargain
Oh yeah, this is what mine looks like
