DIY Front Bike Rack & Basket

Описание: This is my do it yourself (DIY) front rack and basket solution for the KBO Ranger, but it could be adapted for any bike with front rack mounting points. This cost less than $50 in materials to make.

Note: I was not given anything to promote this bike, this is a referral link. I would have made this video regardless.

I do this for fun, and was hesitant about pushing products, but I do have a number of people asking for links so I did sign up as an Amazon Associate. If something is garbage I'll tell you.

The following are affiliate links to items I use with this bike:

Park Tools Spoke Wrench For Square Nipples - https://amzn.to/3Ml5gJL
--I tried two other key type (multi-size) spoke wrenches before getting this, and it works WAY better.

BLITZU Bike Tail Light 2 pack - https://amzn.to/3Ml5C33
--I really like these, they're inexpensive, bright, have a few different mounting possibilities and best of all when one stopped working and I sent an e-mail they asked for my address and sent a replacement within a couple days.

MECHOW Handlebar Bike Mirror - https://amzn.to/3td41Ws
-- I haven't tried a bunch, but this one checked all the boxes and after getting 1 I have equipped all three of our e-bikes with them because they're pretty good quality.

FOMTOR 31.8x100mm Adjustable Stem - https://amzn.to/3td41Ws
-- I mentioned that I hadn't received it yet, since then I have and it has worked out well. BUT you do need to get Headset spacers ( https://amzn.to/3td41Ws ) and use one with it to mount it properly.

GOZENS Tire Pressure Monitor Cap - https://amzn.to/3NkpkgN
-- I have these on my tires for a quick visual check of tire pressure. I like them a lot but some people have said they have had tires lose air with them on. I have not had that experience.

Cloud 9 Cruiser Select Saddle, 10.5" x 10.75" - https://amzn.to/3myc3FH
-- This seat is comfortable and well known, but it's such a personal thing, try a few out!

FLATOUT Tire Sealant Sportsman Formula - https://amzn.to/3Q4PR3d
-- This has worked well for me so far to quickly seal small holes. I did have one gash fairly recently that was about an inch long which it could not seal.

Phone Holder - https://amzn.to/3Q5q6jA
-- This phone holder is fairly inexpensive and grips my large phone very well. It comes with silicon webs to increase the hold, but I use it without them. Have equipped all our e-bikes with this one.

WSDCAM Bike Alarm - https://amzn.to/3av3t7A
-- I think there are a few different brands that appear to be the exact same product. A little extra security, these work well and are LOUD. Have equipped all our e-bikes with them after testing with one.

OKG Bike Chain Lock 12mm links, 16mm shackle NOOSE - https://amzn.to/3NkqcC5
This lock is so much more versatile for our e-bikes than others I have tried including the Kryptonite Evolution Mini. Cheaper and more secure with longer reach because of it's noose capability. Hands down I'd get for all of our e-bikes if I hadn't bought others previously.
