Hello Bunch, I am contemplating a few upgrades to my bike, and one of these is the autumn<http://www.gothamcargo.com/about-autumn/>front basket/crate by Gotham Cargo <http://gothamcargo.com>.
Here is a photo of my Riv <http://www.flickr.com/photos/sumehra/6320659498/in/set-72157626345789636>(not very recent). Now imagine silver Gilles Berthoud fenders and cream tires (this is already a part of the upgrade plan). My first question is, given my color scheme, what color crate would you recommend? Click here for color options<http://www.gothamcargo.com/customize-it/>. I am leaning towards Natural, Graphite, or Silver. If I do Natural, though, I'd like to varnish it somehow to make it match the honey saddle and amber shellacked cork grips. (Silly question - Can I use shellac on wood or only varnish?) My next question is, is there a way to mount this in an easy-on/easy off method on either a big nitto front rack or the smaller mark's rack? Maybe using retractable zip ties or a klickfix solution? I want to have the versatility to have it on most of the time for my inner city use, but from time to time on long rides, have the option to go crate-free. My last question is, is this a terrible idea? Thanks and looking forward to your feedback. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
