just adding my exp. i've had a wald basket on nitto racks for 10ish years. personally i think the 139 is too big for the narrow racks like nitto mini front, and even the big front is too narrow IMO.the best/most stable i used was with the platrack. i'm using a 137 on an simworks obento

John- That’s a great idea, especially since I hate using zip-ties. Do you ever have any basket shimmy where it moves around from being on rough terrain? I used some prototype straps from Matt at Pass & Stow to secure this basket to a five rail I have of his and it did that a lot. Admittedly, th

After looking at Luke's basket setup, I was wondering if anyone else has experienced their rack breaking apart due to the attachment with zip ties? The wires in the base of my first Wald broke in many places, and I believe it was the combination of rough riding and the zip tie attachments. Sin

I really like my big Pelago rack which…I’d send a pic but it’s between bikes. But I’d recommend this one as well. On Apr 11, 2023, at 19:11, Keith Paugh wrote:I have a Sim Works Obento under my 139 Half basket.It has a slightly wider footprint than the other racks I researched, and has been fanta

I have a Sim Works Obento under my 139 Half basket.It has a slightly wider footprint than the other racks I researched, and has been fantastic.Very stable & light. I’ve been really pleased.That being said, if I was going to do it again (and might do anyway), I think I’d get a Pass & Stow rack.I lov

Thanks Nick I haven't seen tha, but looking at it, I think it may be too small ... the platform is 9.5" long so the 139 would hang 3.5" off the front . Definitely keeping weight in mind and also surface area below the basket. I suspect something both wider and longer would be best. On Tuesday, A

Have you considered a “Soma Lucas 3”?  Approx. $60 I believe.   Comes in black and silver. I have one and use it with a 137 and like it a lot.  Might work well with a 139.  Do keep the amount of weight you might want to carry (for safety) in mind though.  NickSent from my iPadOn Apr 11, 2023, at 5:

Greetings I'm interested in racking my Wald 139 big basket and am curious what ppl are using for a rack. I just got an email that the basket rack is back in stock at RBW, and I'm considering just buying it but I'm really just not onboard with spending $288 on a front rack despite how well it's m
