Building the perfect front basket

There is no suitable basket that already exist so we must invest the resources to make our own. 

  

The latest prototype front basket is being tested on our factory runner which has accumulated a few thousand miles over the winter. 

Because the basket mounts to the frame and not the handle bars, The weight will not effect the steering. 

 

Here with 50lbs in the basket, the bike feels agile. The bike can even balance on the side kickstand without tipping over. 

It is made of stainless steel and powder-coated. The basket mounts perfectly on the ODK V3’s front accessory mount. We have a little more time to make some adjustments before time’s up and we need to start tooling for production.
