Thank you very much! Your video is much more vivid than the instruction books.
Those are sweet! Thanks for the showing!
They are pretty cool. Now to see how everything can be changed out for bikepacking.
Looks like a good setup
Thanks for the video
Thanks Mark. Starting to build it all up. Think could make for some fun trips.
thanks for sharing - wishing you 100,000 hits on this before the end of 2019
Thanks for the great thought. I really appreciate it.
Thanks. I've got the exact same rear basket system (and a Trek, also). I wanted to see someone one attach it since I wasn't sure how the whole thing is supposed to look when complete.
An excellent instructional video, many thanks for taking the time to do it! The engineering Topeak put into their products is great too, really shows they've thought about it from the perspective of cyclists.
Just such a shame the front basket is so small (depth is fine but width is disappointing) ! It could have done with looking more like the rear one.
Thanks. Yes the front basket is going to get some mods soon. The clamp sometimes gives and it tilts. Will probably fashion some kind of stay to hold it.
That's good to know because for all my complaining, I ended up getting one anyway! I'll see how well it grips my handlebars and report back if I find similar issues ...
Thanks for this video! So helpful!
Thanks Michaela. We just ordered another set. Been using them now for a while and find them sturdy and love the slide on basket feature
Nice! I set my Trek Montare up for bike camping with rear panniers but haven't tried it out yet.
I am still looking at panniers. What size panniers are you running?
Nature Calls Backpacking The panniers I chose are 12 liters per side. I might just grab one of those baskets for the front. They look decent.
thanks mate !
just seems like you put any weight in the front basket. it will just be dropping down.. with just those rubber mounts on the handlebar.
Nice set up, should be good
Just starting out. Could be a fun new way to see things.
2021, Brasil.❤️🇧🇷🚴😻
Can the rear mtx basket be used in front with a TETRARACK R1
No way that front basket stays level if its loaded down.
Please what is measurement of bottom of rear basket?
12 -13 inches roughly, 12 inches for just the plate
how about that back thing that holds the rear basket?
It has been working great. Just slide it on. Going to outfit my bike with the same racks
Are the screws supposed to stay loose?
How is that rack working out for you? Do you still use it with the basket?
Rack is great. We use the basket regularly and it is great. It is on my wife's bike and she also has the front basket, but mainly used the rear basket almost daily.
