Functional, secure, and pretty!
This is an excellent basket! It is sturdy and fastens onto the frame of my Electra townie very securely using the MIK system (will need the MIK bike rack carrier plate to properly attach to the frame). It is large and could easily hold 2-3 full bags of groceries (weight limit is 20lbs). The bottom of the basket is wire, so if it rains it will not collect water. Great design.
Easy to use, secure — and cute!
I’m impressed! My Electra Townie Go bike has a MIK-compatible rear rack, and attaching this basket to it couldn’t be easier. It just snaps on. When you want to remove it, you just slide in the MIK key (provided with the basket), and it pops right off, ready for shopping. Nobody’s going to steal this puppy. Appears to be good quality, too. And it’s cute to boot.
Thank you Trek
IWhen I first purchased this basket for my Electra Townie, I was disappointed with how quickly the wire around the bolts wore through despite light use. I wrote a review to share that experience. Since then, Trek/Electra’s customer care team (Skip from Trek!) reached out personally after reading my letter. Not only did they acknowledge my concerns with genuine kindness, but they also immediately offered to send me a replacement basket at no cost. I am blown away by their responsiveness and generosity. My Townie has been one of the best investments I’ve ever made—for my health, joy, and peace of mind—and now I can say their customer service matches the quality of the bike itself. Thank you, Trek/Electra, for turning my disappointment into renewed confidence in your company. For a product marketed for bikes, I would expect it to last much longer under such minimal load. Beautiful design, but unfortunately not durable enough for regular riding.
Lovely basket
Lovely basket. Easy to attach but only if you have a MIK rack on your bike. Lightweight but sturdy. Weatherproof but looks like real wicker.
