Thanks all, but no good: either too small in plan or too modest in weight limits. I'll see what I can rig up. The Ortlieb one is the best, but it's too small.

Of course I ignored the request about being on *top* of a rack, as the side by side deal would to me be more stable. Otherwise no company makes anything as robust as genuine milk crates... attaching it solidly I can't help you there. It' just better be as solid as that crate ! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Pletscher makes baskets with an adapter that will click in and out of their racks, including the Clem rack I believe https://www.pletscher.ch/index.php/en/products-en/accessories-en > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
