Choose your basket and mounting setup
Choose the basket size for your belongings and available space. Check rack support, mounting points, rider clearance and any other fitted accessories before ordering.
| Option | Included | Before riding |
|---|---|---|
| Basket only | Basket; no mounting set or MIK plate. | Secure it using suitable mounting hardware you already own or purchase separately. |
| Basket + Basil crate mounting set | Basket and fixed mounting set; no MIK plate. | Check the mounting set fits your carrier. This is a fixed setup, not MIK quick release. |
| Basket + MIK adaptor plate | Basket and Basil MIK Product Adapter Plate 2.0 (70173), including keys S/L. | Secure the plate beneath the basket and use a compatible MIK rack/interface. The product adapter is already included—do not add another. |
A suitable non-MIK rack may need a separate rack-side MIK Carrier Plate (70170); an integrated MIK rack does not. Check exact compatibility. Follow the lowest basket, adapter (15kg), rack and bike load limit.
Basil is known for practical bicycle baskets, crates, bags and bike accessories. We keep black as the standard option for this listing, and we have access to the wider Basil range of products. If you want another Basil basket, bag, crate, bell or accessory, ask us and we can order it in where available.
Colour options
This listing is for the black crate. Basil also offers this crate style in Black, Moss green, Terra red, Chocolate brown, Bluestone, Bright white, Silver blue; the slider above shows the available colour direction so you can match the bike or keep it understated.
Why this crate makes sense
- Everyday carrying: A simple open crate for groceries, school bags, work gear and odd-shaped items.
- Recycled synthetic material: Basil lists the crate as made from post-consumer waste, also called regranulate.
- Front or rear carrier use: Designed for use on a compatible front or rear bicycle carrier.
- Mounting flexibility: Choose basket only, basket with a fixed mounting set, or basket with a MIK product adapter. The MIK adapter is included only in the Basket + MIK adaptor plate option; confirm the carrier and mounting interface are suitable.
- Quick visual marker: The contrasting crate clip helps identify the bike in a crowded rack.

Before ordering
Basket and crate fit depends on the bike carrier, rack rating, mounting plate and how the bike will be loaded. Confirm compatibility before ordering, especially on eBikes with unusual racks, child seats, rear passengers or other accessories already fitted.
FAQ
Can I order another Basil colour or product?
Yes. Black is the standard option here, but we can source other Basil colours and products where available through the Basil range.
Does it include the mounting system?
Basket only excludes mounting hardware. Basket + Basil crate mounting set includes the fixed mounting set. Neither includes a MIK adaptor plate. The Basket + MIK adaptor plate option includes the Basil MIK Adapter Plate 2.0 (70173) and keys S/L; the adaptor plate is included.
Can it go on the front or rear?
Yes, Basil lists the crate for front and/or rear use, provided the carrier and mounting system are suitable.
How much can it carry?
Basil lists 10 kg, but the real limit is also controlled by the bike carrier or rack rating. Use the lower of the two limits.
Basket + MIK adaptor plate
This option combines the basket shown in the existing basket photos with the Basil MIK Adapter Plate 2.0 (70173), including keys S and L. The separately labelled plate photo shows the included adapter, not another basket. No factory pre-assembly is implied. Secure the plate to the basket before use.
Basket-only and fixed-mounting-set options remain separate choices.
Check if your bike needs a carrier plate
For a detachable MIK setup, check your bike in the carrier-plate compatibility table. Not every bike needs the rack-side 70170. Confirm rack fit, clearances and load limits; fixed mounting does not require MIK parts.
Basket + MIK adaptor plate already includes the basket-side 70173 and keys S/L, not the separate rack-side 70170. Do not buy a second 70173 for that bundle.
