I'm using a Nitto Big Front rack (34F) to support a large Wald basket on my Atlantis. I'm using a Nitto F20 on a 26" wheel camping bike to support a Medium Wald Basket. I'm using a Velo Orange Constructeur front rack to support a medium Wald basket on another commuter bike.

[RBW] Re: Mounting a Large Front Basket
I think your question needs a little more clarification, what would you like to carry in the basket? I have a wald large on my QB and i use a nitto mini+platrack. i added the platrack because i like to carry as much as possible (car battery, watermelon, gallon of milk), but if i was not carrying such heavy loads and only carrying light things (like sleepbags, jackets, etc that RBW usually show) then i think a nitto mini or mark's rack alone would be fine. nitto r14 in the front is another option, but i think the pletscher is a better value. like bill i also use a BFR on another bike, but i think that's a little overkill :) On Wednesday, December 30, 2015 at 1:22:12 PM UTC-5, Jim S. wrote: > > Good morning all, > > I was interested in group-member opinions on the best rack to mount a > large Wald basket on the front of your Rivendell.

I mounted a Cosmo on the front of my Bomba, then mounted a Platrack on top of it: https://www.flickr.com/photos/leslie_bright/7729133174/in/album-72157623199721925/ Then, I can ziptie the Wald onto the Platrack, which more fully supports it: https://www.flickr.com/photos/leslie_bright/22755349636/in/album-72157623199721925/ On Wednesday, December 30, 2015 at 1:22:12 PM UTC-5, Jim S. wrote: > > Good morning all, > > I was interested in group-member opinions on the best rack to mount a > large Wald basket on the front of your Rivendell.
