The eternal bike question, finally answered! Having used both front and back baskets on my bike over the years, I've mused about the pros and cons of each style a lot. So I decided to finally put a little rigor to those musings and did a series of tests to detemine if it's better in your urban bike life or bicycle commute to haul your stuff in a basket on the front of your bike, or the back. Here are the tests:
0:00 Introduction
1:02 The empty basket test
2:09 The grocery test
4:50 The weight test
7:04 The convenience test
7:53 The bounce test
9:05 The conclusion
Here's the baskets I used in the video:
Front: Evo Bar Basket Classic amzn.to/3k1TIAm
Rear: Axiom Market Basket LX amzn.to/3l5onMk
