Can anyone recommend a good and cheap bike basket?
Are there any bad or not recommendable ones?

many thanks!

Saw some at Wilkinsons/Wilkos, they were hung up next to the flower baskets!
Didnt see a price on them, but cant be much at Wilkos.

Hi, many thanks, but I'm in London...

Baskets are not a particularly good idea as loading them up does affect steering. Much better is to have a rear rack and load carry on that.

Of course, if one insists on a basket, one should go for the handmade, traditional..

I'm pretty sure I sure a wicker basket on the Halfords web site for 14.99 - which was quite annoying, because I paid about 25!!!
