WTB Bike baskets
I'm looking to buy some rear baskets for a canal cruiser. Anybody have any kicking around? Possibly interested in a front basket as well.
can pay cash or some kinda trade.Thanks |
That bike shop in Bourne by the canal told me last year he can order them.
|
Cedarville Cycles off exit 2 in Plymouth has the big rear baskets.....brand new for $40 I think they are!
|
Do you have a Benny's where your located?
|
I saw them on e-bay for around 35.00
|
Thanks for all the tips guys. Don't have a Benny's near me that I know of, I been to the one in soco and didn't even think to look for baskets there. I guess I'll wait till plugfest and see if I can find a place in buzzards bay or bourne that has them. Thanks again
|
How much does the large rear baskets normally go for at benny's? A shop a couple towns over has them for $30, does that sound about right?
|
$25 - $30 bucks
|
Thanks mike
|
any bike shop has them
|
I know this isnt what you asked, but I also had trouble finding baskets, and when I finally did, they were expensive and too small. So I used heavy duty zip ties and milk crates. Works great!
|
20 bucks bennys i just picked up a set, if you dont ahve a bennys near you let me know and i will pick a set up and meet you.
|
Thanks for the offer Skippy, but I'm going to wait until the risaa show and hit a benny's on the way there I think. I tried the benny's in buzzards bay or wareham when I was up that way for plugfest but they where sold out of baskets and rear kickstands..go figure
Thank you for the suggestions guys |

It's been a few years but back then the big rear baskets at Benny's were not the really large "Paperboy Baskets". A true Paperboy basket will fit a Double Row AS bag, a full size Stanley thermos, a decent sized jacket and even more...in one side.
I got mine at Performance Auto near Weymouth Landing for $39 three years ago. It is awesome and I'm glad I did not settle for the smaller large baskets as the extra room really makes a difference. |

The one BigFish has is much better than the Benny's ones. I plan on heading down to Cedarville Cycles and getting one when I go to the MSBA show in Plymouth next month. |

Yup! Cedarville Cycles=Big Baskets! About 40 beans!
|
Thanks
Thanks for all the help guys, ended up picking up a basket from Benny's today. I see what you guys mean about them being on the smaller side, it barely fits my double row bronco bag. For $20 it'll work fine, the bike didn't even cost a 1/4 of that :biglaugh:

You can get Wald Baskets on Amazon... They have huge rear baskets that you can attach PVC pipe to hold your rods... I think their 535 model is the biggest rear dualie basket on the mkt about $45 plus $6 shipping via amazon 2-3 delivery
