Look at the picture of this basket on their website (http://www.peterborobasket.com/p-1269-peterboro-original-extra-large-bicycle-basket.aspx ), and see where they have the leather straps attached. The only change I made was to move each strap more to the middle.
I don't think I'd want to have this basket on my scoot all the time because I'm used to being able to pull up close to things and it's harder to do that with the basket attached. I'd definitely want this basket if I was out shopping though, because whatever you put in it is easy to reach. It does make the hand brakes harder to use because it's so close to them, but the only time I use the hand brakes is if I'm going down a hill and need to slow myself down. Any other time I just let go of the throttle and have no problem stopping.
It's pretty simple to attach or remove -- just buckle or unbuckle the straps. I give it two thumbs up!

That's a great picture of you :)
ReplyDeleteSince I am nosy rosy... what are you going to make with the fabric?
I have been trying to get myself back into sewing mode. I got a serger for xmas and haven't quite got my sewing room cleaned up enough to set it up yet lol
Thanks! My partner in crime Melissa has the bug to create a dress pattern and she is offering to make me dresses with it. Walmart is closing out their fabric section and we got the fabric for a little more than $1 a yard, so it was an offer I couldn't pass up! I think she's a saint for doing it.
ReplyDeleteThat is a fantastic price. I wish I could find a sale like that here.
ReplyDeleteI ordered some patterns that I have to alter to fit me because they only go to a 6X and I am more of an 8X.
