I used that combo for years before purchasing a Riv Nitto Basket Rack.
Highly recommend it. It's hard to overload it considering the space
constraints of the medium wald.

My best "almost-crash" story:
When I was an undergrad at Stanford, back when dinosaurs roamed the earth
and we did all our assignments on clay tablets (late '80's), I was biking
to class one day and had an epic almost crash. For context, Stanford is a
large campus, so there are a LOT of cyclist
I've had good luck commuting with tubed Soma Shikoro in 700x38 or 48 widths.

I've also used Donnely (formely clement) X'Plor MSO 700 X 50 on my gravel
touring bike tubeless with good sucess.

I second Mike’s motion. I use the standard Wald hardware on both of my
basket bikes, and it works fine.

I really don't crash all too often and generally when I do they are hardly
memorable.
I wouldn't chalk it up to skill (although several years of mountain bike
racing certainly helped) or even over-cautiousness, more than likely just
the experience of riding a bike for 51 years and kind of know
