Torker Tri Star Rear Basket White Bicycle Review

Torker Tri Star Rear Basket White Bicycle
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased this basket to provide an extra carrying space on the back of my mobility scooter. The baskets available from the scooter companys are very small and this unit gives a larger volume of capacity. I fashioned a rear mount to fit the attachment connector already on the scooter and adding a piece of 1" square tube along with the mounting hardware included with the basket. While it provides limited weight carrying capacity, It is convenient for added space.

Minoura Rear Mount Saddle-Rail Bracket Review

Minoura Rear Mount Saddle-Rail Bracket
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The plate which connects the holder to the seat rails is too short, so it's very easy to knock the whole thing loose even when you think you have it very tight. It would help if the ends could hook around the rails somehow to prevent twisting. Luckily, a friend of mine came up with a new plate design so that it is very secure now. The bracket is very good quality, but they need to redesign the mounting plate for this to work right.

Cycle Force Front Bicycle Basket Review

Cycle Force Front Bicycle Basket
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I use this to carry some heavy groceries, and I haven't had any troubles yet. The quality is good, and it's very strong and durable. It's a little dorky looking, but gets the job done. It came with absolutely no instructions, and I called the company and they faxed them to me. It was somewhat tricky to attach to my bike, but that's probably more because of my lack of skills.
I'd definitely recommend it, especially if you're going to carry heavy things.

I am very pleased with the Panniers. Quiet while riding. Easy on and off clips. HUGE awesome rain covers. Would recommend over any other panniers. I will be testing these more as the seasons demands change and they get more use.

Electra Alloy Balloon Townie Fender Set Review

Electra Alloy Balloon Townie Fender Set
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These are what you are looking for if you have a balloon tire Electra Townie. I have a Townie 9D with Fat Frank 2.35" tires and was uncertain as to proper fenders. These are actuual Electra fenders. My bike is gloss black and the matte finish works very well. Even if gloss black were available I would buy these. The finish appears to be powder coat or some type of annodize? They are light weight and I suppose would dent fairly easy, as alloy does. They are very form fit and close to the tire but cover only the tread portion of those nice looking Schwalbes. Engineering is very good as they bolt right up without a fight and clear everything. No rubs, no rattles. High quality mounting hardware. The only decision is whether black would work for you if your bike is a color other than black. Very elegant look! Pair these up with a Brooks B67 saddle, Brooks roll-down panniers, a traditional brass bell etc., if you want a great looking Euro-style city bike. I am extremely happy with this product.

Yakima Trunk Mount Security Strap Review

Yakima Trunk Mount Security Strap
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Obviously, nothing can stop a determined thief if he is given enought time and opportunity.
But this ingenious device quickly and easily can add additional security to both the bike and the
bike carrier on the back of a vehicle.
By the way, it is made by Yakima but will work with almost ANY bike rack.
It is a flexible "strap" that has a flexible metal band for extra strength and security. The strap
cane be easily and quickly wrapped around the frame of the bike (and even the bike rack if you want)
and then the other end is thrown into the trunk and then the trunk is slammed shut, securing the strap
(and, therefore, the bike and bike rack).
Some might ask "well, can't the strap be cut?" etc. The answer is: "of course it can!" (just like virtually
ANY lock!) but it still provides some protection that just might be enough to protect your bike or bike
rack from theft.

Civia Panniers Review

Civia Panniers
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I just got this today and had it stuffed full after running errands on my bike. The bag was easy to take on and off while I did my shopping and held a ton of stuff! Even fully loaded, the bag was secure. I read reviews of other pannier bags that have popped off while riding over bumps- scary- but not this bag. It's good looking, light weight, waterproof, easy, and secure. The only bad part is that I only bought one. I will definitely be getting a second.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These are great bags. They expand upwards 10 inches and the straps extend to keep the top tight. With cinch straps everywhere, nothing rattles around. Super heavy duty mounting bracket and straps. These babys stay put.
Also, the top covers have a zippered pouch and m.o.l.l.e. type webbing on top.
Perfect !

Topeak HighLite Combo Bicycle Light Set Review

Topeak HighLite Combo Bicycle Light Set
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a good combo set. A decent back and front light. The red rear light is a little tough to get off the quick release, but provides good rear blinking at a close to 180 degree range.
The front light has two settings solid on and blinkey on and off. The mounting mechanism is great and easily mounts on almost any size front handle bars. The actual light is very small yet highly visible. The downside will be when you have to replace the batteries, they're not standard AA or AAA. However, I expect they'll last for a really long time despite their small size.
The front light I got in the mail did not work! It would only intermediately turn on. However, I RMAed the product through Topeaks website and they sent me a replacement very quickly with minimal annoying pointless questions. I simply sent the bad unit back to them when I got the replacement. I recommend this product.

I love the large size of these bags! I can fit my tent, with poles in one bag, plus a sleeping bag, and there's still a bit of room left over. Haven't used them on a long tour yet. They appear durable. Only complaint - no directions came with them as to installation. had to figure that out on my own and I'm still not sure I got it right.

I wanted some nice panniers with good storage capacity and easy mounting/unmounting. These fit the ticket. They're not waterproof, if you need that then spend the extra money on some Ortliebs. If you're not worried about wet, though, these work great. The mount is solid and adjustable.

ACCLAIM ALLOY WATER BOTTLE CAGE HOLDER SEATPOST MOUNT SILVER Review

ACCLAIM ALLOY WATER BOTTLE CAGE HOLDER SEATPOST MOUNT SILVER
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This solid aluminum clamp design bottle cage holder works. I first tried a product that worked like a hose clamp. Pure plastic junk! Then a bike store special ordered for me a design that used wire wraps, also junk!
I did a detailed internet search and this Acclaim design is the best thing out there if you want to attach to a seat post or other tubes on the bike. And the tube you are attaching can be oval and this design will still grab it. If the tube diameter is really big like a Cannondale frame then this clamp wont work.

Axiom Columbus Deluxe Trunk Bag Review

Axiom Columbus Deluxe Trunk Bag
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This trunk bag is well built. I've used it commuting for two years, (generally 3,000 miles per year). I simply wore the first one to the point I needed a new bag. Axiom has changed their product line... perhaps better designs, but this one worked so well for me, I decided to buy another one before it goes away.
On my first bag, the zippers never went bad... only one of the pulls finally broke off so I put a key ring on it. Bungie cords stretched with daily use so I ended up replacing them, the velcro fasteners are a bit tattered, but still hold it securely to the rack.
This bag looks great on my bike, holds my tools, cable locks, spare tubes and a change of clothes for work. I ended up purchasing from a company other than Amazon to save about $10.At least I know I'll have a good daily use bike bag for another two years or more.
No complicated fastening systems or requirement to use "Their bike rack". Four long velcro straps work well to secure the bag and make for easy removal. The reflective strips are a plus. Never really used the top-side bungie or the shoulder strap... but that's just me. Inside is a 5x5 inch velcro fastened section that can be placed as a shelf or divider. The inside lining never became ratty or sticky. I used the upper side straps for my bike pump (Specialized Air-Force) which has always held it securely. This bag is made with quality materials.

Beto Deluxe Reclining Baby Bicycle Seat - CCS-001 GREY Review

Beto Deluxe Reclining Baby Bicycle Seat - CCS-001 GREY
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The instructions for the rack were useless, in the end I don't think the rack fit my Jamis hybrid anyway. The top and bottom parts of the seat did not fit together because a part of the plastic where the seat connects seemed to be made poorly. The box I received the chair in looked like it had been returned several times. It was very beat up, taped up, and looked old.
