Are you able to attach a basket to the front of the bicycle? Or can it only be mounted to the back?

You can add a basket to either front or back. You will have to mount the front light on the fender to use a smaller basket though.

The front of the bike would most likely be more sturdy than the back attachment to the fender which constantly needs to be adjusted. I advise against buying this bicycle if you intend on carrying anything on it. It is more or less for riding around a suburban neighborhood. It is not a street/commuter bike which they market it as.

Sorry, we have only attached to the front of our bike. It's hard to imagine how and what you would attach it to in the back. I called the company located in Washington when I had a question about installation. They were very helpful. Sorry, wish I could have answered your question.

You need to get a separate piece that mounts to the bike forming the upper bar. Then, you can mount this to a carrier rack.

I think that you can't place any carrier above the rear wheel. There is basket holder above front wheel. But you have to buy basket extra, isn't part of the bike.

I mounted it to the luggage rack on the back of my bike...don't see how else you could do it.

The basket attaches to the front bar with adjustable straps. It seems like it would work.

This basket is designed to be mounted on a rack. If you wanted to use it on your handlebars you would have make your own mount. You'd probably be better off looking for another basket, one made to mount on handlebars.

Hi Barbara - the bike does come with a basket holder for the back (standard amongst bikes), but does not come with a basket per say. I utilize the basket holder and connect a milk carton with some bungee cords and this works out great for when I want fold up the bike. Otherwise with the milk carton still attached, the folding process might not work out as easily as you would like. Hope this helps! Mike

There are two tabs on the bottom of the basket. These tabs are used to attach the struts that attach to the front wheel to support the basket. The tabs can be removed. It will take some effort to remove them. Good luck.

I have the smaller Wald basket, and sometimes it is heavy on the steering so parking the bike needs extra care in balancing when using the kickstand; an empty rack is best while parked.

i am sure there would be a way to do it depending on your McGyver skills i mounted mine on my front forks after it broke sadly they do not hold much more weight than clothes or dried foods my broke with just 12 pounds in my saddle bags

You do need a support in the back of the bike, because it attaches itself to it. This basket only attaches itself to the back, its not a front basket at all. Its a great product though, I had it for a year now, and its still super sturdy. Hope it helps, cheers! =)

The basket itself does not allow you to carry it without the frame so I would think not for that purpose.

I hang my bikes by the front wheel with the back wheel resting against the wall. The force on the back wheel tends to keep the bike steady, but it would swing if you pushed it hard enough to one side.

Yup. I've seen it done. There's nothing precision or high-tech about mounting these. Find a couple of attachment points at least eight inches apart to clamp to the top wire of the basket, and it's probably a good idea to find a point to tether the bottom of the basket to prevent swinging. The included mounting hardware probably won't work, but a couple of hose clamps from any hardware or auto store will do nicely. My question is - do you want a pair of these? You can order these baskets singly, and I'm wondering even if there was room for two on the back of your chair, one above the other, if you'd want that much of a load on the back.

You can definitely make it work. The two "hooks" can be adjusted independently, so you can put one higher for the front and one lower for the back so the bike itself sits level.
