Wald Basket 42

Overview

Whether you need to haul bikepacking essentials or you need to covertly ferry your blanket-covered  extra-terrestrial friend to his crashed spaceship, just add a bungee cord to the top and this Wald basket will get the job done. With a strong steel construction, the Wald Basket 42 is that workhorse that will capably haul a medium-sized load of all the items in your packlist and is a breeze to install: simply bolt or zip-tie it to a front or rear rack though your handlebar bracket or legs.

Once mounted, the basket stays put and doesn’t rattle around. To get the most out of your Wald basket, try pairing it with the variety of nifty and customizable bags from Swift Industries such as the Swift Gibby Stem Bag, the Swift Bandito Bicycle Bag or Swift’s massive Motherloaf bag.

Wald baskets won’t win your bike much style points around the campfire, but what these classic wire baskets lack in flare, they make up for with durability, sturdiness and functionality. If the 42 is too bulky for your needs, check out the smaller Wald 37.
