Pros outweigh the one big con
This was SUPER easy to install. Screw driver, little time, quick set up.This was really hard for me, a female with a tendon issue in a wrist that can flare up easily, to balance on the handlebars with one 10 pound, very well behaved dog. This has been my ONLY con.My remedy, using industrial grade zip ties, I poked little holes in the fabric on the bottom of the bag and secured it in multiple places to a back cargo rack. I intended to only use it with one of my dogs (the mini poodle, 10 pounds) as she’s worked with me to ride more. She is very attached to me, so in the back, she can push her nose against me when she’s insecure. She sat very quiet and didn’t move at all when I had it on the handlebars, but it was still a lot (I have a mountain bike, but used it on residential streets). I randomly popped my Jack Russell (12 pounds) in with her one day for a ride with my kids. They LOVED it. The basket is worth the whole price, even rigging it on the back. There’s a place I can attach a water bottle for them, I love the reflective inserts (even if it’s on the back - I’m the type that wants to be visible to anyone when biking), theres a pocket I can fit two 4 foot leashes, and a pouch I can put a few treats and poo bags in. I’ve had to wash the material in the dog area, and was pleased with how it just velcros right in and out. For a newbie to hauling dogs with her, the rear mount option was best, but this basket comes with two styles of ties to clip them in securely - and they adjust - so I have two, for two dogs, is comfortable for my dogs, cleans easily, and helps store the things they need.

Just what I was looking for!
My JR loves to go places with me and bicycling is no exception. I was a little skeptical looking at so many carriers and then I found this one on Amazon. I still wasn’t sure if it would hold her portly weight of 22 pounds and be sturdy enough and feel secure. We had our trial run today. She loved it. She felt comfortable and it stayed in place no wobbling and very secure. Assembly was so easy to put together. The Video was great along with the manual instructions.Glad I made the purchase.

Excellent quality
This bicycle dog basket is very well made and the design is perfect. My dog enjoyed the ride and was able to move around just enough to be safe and take in the view as we rode. I highly recommended this product. Worth the price.

Great quality!
This little basket is great quality. Super sturdy interior wire basket with plenty of padding for my little dogs. The installation was super easy. I was a little nervous at first it wouldn’t work with my handle bars but it went on perfectly. Both of my dogs were super comfortable and I love that it has two different tethers and pockets on the sides. The only thing that would make it better would be bigger pockets and some on the backside that are easier to reach when riding. Other than that I love it!

PERFECT - I am thrilled!
I found this basket on a list of "The Best Dog Bike Baskets: Safe Bicycle Riding with Dogs" and this basket was listed as #2 (to be honest, I'm not sure why the #1 was listed as #1 - it looks...odd), but this one should have been #1! I'll put the details below my review. I agree with every point they make.My Yorkie is 10 lbs. We previously had the #3 on the list: Snooze Buddy Dog Basket. It was a great basket. I loved it, but I sold my bike and I couldn't detach the basket attachment thingy since it rusted on over ten years. However, I did have a few issues with it - the attachment thingy dug into the basket so much that it was pressed up against my dog, which really limited her space inside the basket, although otherwise, she fit fine. The other thing is that it was not sturdy. It slid from side to side as we rode and as she moved around inside.The biggest consideration when purchasing this basket was finding a sturdy basket, as finding a basket for her size isn't too difficult. With that being said, she has a great amount of room in this basket. She jumped right in when we took it out of the box and she NEVER does that. So that is saying something!!ARTICLE REVIEW (as mentioned):Pet Pilot is a super durable bike basket designed to carry small breed dogs.Working hard to improve pet weight capacity, Pet Pilot partnered with WALD and used their patented mount to develop a new basket fitted with the mount.The results? A bike basket that can safely hold heavier dogs. This is one of the rare and few dog carriers for 25 lb dogs!In fact, some folks even say they’ve managed to use it with dogs as high as 35lbs and have still had great stability. However, once you get to 35lbs, it’s really too much weight to ride around with on your handlebars, so we suggest sticking to 25lbs and under for now.We’re excited about spring though, as Pet Pilot is promising a new model that’s designed to hold much heavier pets!Features:Color is Customizable. Basket comes with 5 different colored inserts that allow you to pick and choose the color or your pooch’s basket based on your mood!Steel Frame & Handlebar Mount. Extremely durable and tough steel mounting system that keeps your dog safe and sound.Mesh Venting. The physical basket features mesh material that acts as a cooling air vent, making sure that your pup doesn’t get overheated.Reflective Siding. This unit’s reflective siding can help keep both you and your booth visible at dusk.Added Pockets. Features mesh pockets to store your water bottle, keys, cell phone, leash, treats, or other necessities!Patented Stability Design. This basket features a unique patented handlebar locking design for increased stability. Can hold dogs up to 20lbs with ease.Easy to Remove. The basket can be taken on and off the handlebar bracket easily, letting you add or remove the basket easily based on your needs.Safety Leash. Features leash attachment inside the basket to keep your dog from jumping out.

Good and Not so good
Now that the carrier is on the bike I am very satisfied. Attaching the basket to the bracket was difficult. Response from Spanggang by phone or email has not been good, as in NO response in 2 days.

PERFECT!!!
Absolutely love this basket!!! It was so easy to install. Our 12 # Multi-poo dog fits perfectly in it. It's design so it doesn't sag down on your front tire is genius! I was a little hesitant to spend more than other baskets but it was highly superior to all the others in my opinion because of its quality of construction and it works!!

Great!
I have a 20-pound dog who LOVES riding in this basket. It is a little hard at first to learn how to ride with the weight on the front of the bike, but you get used to it. I wish the sides were a tad higher on the basket but other than that it is awesome. I did lots of research, and this seems to be the winner for dog baskets for heavier dogs.

Mounting hook broke off first bike ride, very unsafe
Assembly was easy and the basket is very comfortable but there is a major flaw in the mounting. The basket is held on by a metal hook at the top of the mounting bracket which seemed fine at first. Went out on a bike ride with my dog in the basket (10 pound yorkie-poo so not that heavy) and the hook broke off. I was on a flat trail and was not going fast at all. As the hook is the only piece keeping the basket on, the hook breaking off sent the basket and my dog flying and crashed on the ground. Luckily the way the basket landed ended up not hurting my dog but this scared me and is very unsafe! Upon inspection, the hook is only held on by a very small circle of welding on each side. This needs to be welded way better than it currently is. This is a safety hazard and am currently in the process of returning the basket.

Great product
Exactly as it was described - easy to use. The product is great but riding with a 22lb dog on the front of your bike when your not the greatest cyclist has proven difficult and somewhat dangerous. I recommend the product for especially with experienced cyclists and smaller dogs.
