I’m going to show you some good ways of using the 139 half basket, which I designed.<\/p>\n

*The one on my bike is a sample. That’s why it’s so deformed. You will get a clean one so don’t worry.*<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

First, I highly recommend using it with a porteur rack.<\/p>\n

By using a porteur rack by itself, you would need to tie up your bag with straps which is always a pain in the butt.<\/p>\n

And its always annoying when you have to squeeze the straps tight to make sure that the bag doesn’t fall off from the rack when riding. I don’t know how many pastries I’ve ruined throughout the years.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And now that I have the 139 half basket, I don’t have to feel those pains anymore.<\/p>\n

Some people told be to just put the regular 139 basket on, but I really don’t like how big and deep the original 139 is to be completely honest.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Here’s my set up. I’m using a few straps to keep my bag from flying off.<\/p>\n

All I have to do is just put the bag inside the basket and I’m ready to go. No more strapping down everything.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If I need to go for a grocery hunt, I always use the ILE rack bag.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The bag itself is too big for daily use in my opinion so I only use this bag for shopping. The bag looks cool so I also leave it on if I feel like it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Here’s a cool thing I found out.<\/p>\n

By using the ILE bag with the 139 half basket, I was able to use the back pocket of the bag without having a problem with the basket covering the pocket.<\/p>\n

Hope you are making good use of the Wald half baskets!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":110250,"template":"","better_featured_image":{"id":110250,"alt_text":"","caption":"","description":"","media_type":"image","media_details":{"width":1280,"height":853,"file":"2019\/07\/DSCF9446.jpg","sizes":{"thumbnail":{"file":"DSCF9446-640x427.jpg","width":640,"height":427,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":62656,"source_url":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DSCF9446-640x427.jpg"},"medium":{"file":"DSCF9446-900x600.jpg","width":900,"height":600,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":104175,"source_url":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DSCF9446-900x600.jpg"},"large":{"file":"DSCF9446-1179x786.jpg","width":1179,"height":786,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":155676,"source_url":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DSCF9446-1179x786.jpg"},"post-thumbnail":{"file":"DSCF9446-800x600.jpg","width":800,"height":600,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":95013,"source_url":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DSCF9446-800x600.jpg"}},"image_meta":{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0","keywords":[]},"filesize":347288},"post":110245,"source_url":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DSCF9446.jpg"},"acf":{"not_to_displayed_on_top":null,"ctm-post-priority":null},"post-meta-fields":{"_edit_lock":["1641633000:48"],"_edit_last":["48"],"_my_meta_value_key":["[{\"pid\":34419,\"name\":\"*WALD* 139 half basket (white)\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/wald-139-half-basket-white.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/58380b5adbf00c5b2741afb4fc1b2f76\/1\/d\/1dsc08463_1.jpg\"},{\"pid\":29060,\"name\":\"*WALD* 139 half basket (green)\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/wald-139-half-basket-green.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/58380b5adbf00c5b2741afb4fc1b2f76\/1\/e\/1emg_8206.jpg\"},{\"pid\":29061,\"name\":\"*WALD* 139 half basket (khaki)\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/wald-139-half-basket-khaki.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/58380b5adbf00c5b2741afb4fc1b2f76\/1\/e\/1emg_8211.jpg\"},{\"pid\":29062,\"name\":\"*WALD* 139 half basket (wine)\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/wald-139-half-basket-wine.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/58380b5adbf00c5b2741afb4fc1b2f76\/1\/e\/1emg_8196.jpg\"},{\"pid\":28373,\"name\":\"*WALD* 139 half basket (black)\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/wald-139-half-basket-black.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/58380b5adbf00c5b2741afb4fc1b2f76\/1\/i\/1img_2907_4.jpg\"},{\"pid\":28374,\"name\":\"*WALD* 139 half basket (silver)\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/wald-139-half-basket-silver.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/58380b5adbf00c5b2741afb4fc1b2f76\/1\/i\/1img_2909.jpg\"}]"],"_thumbnail_id":["110250"],"_wp_old_date":["2021-12-18"]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review-global\/129856"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review-global"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/review-global"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/110250"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=129856"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
