Review of a Swagman Front Cargo Retro Basket with Deluxe Quick-Release Bracket


Today we are going to show you part number S80970-71 this is from Swagman. This is a front cargo, retro bike basket, and it comes complete with a deluxe, quick-release bracket. The bike basket will mount on virtually any bike and is a perfect complement to like a cruiser bike or any type of urban bike.

We will go ahead and install it on a typical mountain bike, actually, and show you how easy it is to install and use. It is pretty easy to use. Simply slide the basket over the bracket until it snaps into place. To release it, just pull back on this lever and pull up on the basket and it comes off right away. We will go ahead and install the bracket onto the handlebars. It comes in two pieces. The bottom half just goes on there over the center of your bars. And then the top half. Now, after you install it on the handlebars, you can actually adjust this, too, by squeezing in the middle buttons here, and you can rotate the basket mount however you need it.

And now it is basically ready to use. Just take your basket and slide it over a track. You can see this is an easy-to-use basket. It would be great for making trips to the local market, and you can actually detach it and go in the store with it and carry your materials with it. And there you have it for part number S80970-71 from Swagman.
