• Classic wicker basket
The traditional wicker bike basket is completely made of wicker or rattan. Lightweight and with a classic appearance, it is a popular choice for city bikes with a transport carrier, among others.

• Wicker handlebar basket
Handlebar baskets made of wicker are often designed for installment on the handlebar using hooks or straps. Depending on its size, you can fit several individual items in it, or your entire bag.

• Transport bike basket
Transport bike baskets, or baker’s baskets, are rectangular baskets that sometimes feature a rounded front side and/or a lid. They have plenty of room for lots of stuff and add a touch of nostalgia to your bike.

• Rear wicker baskets
Wicker bike baskets for the back of the bicycle are generally larger than transport carrier baskets. You can use them to transport groceries, your bag and any other larger items.

• Removable wicker carrier baskets
This type of wicker basket is designed to be transformed into a shoulder bag or carrier basket once you reach your destination. Easy to remove, with easy to hide mounting hooks/straps.

• Pet baskets made of wicker
Designed for transporting your pet(s)! This basket features convenient things like leash attachment points and a mesh dome to put over your basket.

• Wicker bike crate
A bicycle crate with all the advantages of a wicker bike basket. It is usually mounted on the back of the bicycle, as a stylish alternative to the plastic bike crate for example.

You can often deck out your wicker bike basket with a lid or cover to keep your things in place and protect them during rides.

How to install your wicker bike basket

There is often more than one way to install a wicker basket on your bicycle. The basket comes with hooks that are easy to hook over the handlebars, or it can be mounted using cable ties. These are inserted through the corners at the bottom of the basket and secured around the carrier tubes. If necessary, additional cable ties can be added to fasten the basket extra tightly.

There are also various adapters available for installing a wicker basket on your bicycle, produced by brands like KlickFix and Racktime. They enable you to install the basket on the adapter quickly and easily, and to remove it just as easily. This provides you with more options and freedom for installing your wicker basket. It also makes the basket suitable for more types of bicycles.
