This basket is one that’s supposed to hang but that doesn’t work out for my current set up. I attached it like this- but I’m not to sure of its safety. It feels really secure but it’s a Wald 198 that I’ve seen a few times so was wondering if anyone else has experience hanging them a little different? (:

Hang it from the tube above it?
Mount it on a front rack. It’s more secure and sits lower which is good for balance. It also creates more room for your payload.
Zip ties where the rim of the basket touches the handlebars. Loosen the brackets, attach zip tits, re-tighten brackets.
Rubber shims between the bar and the rack mounts. If you bought new, some should have come with it.
In my opinion, cut the basket struts to fit your needs.
If you are using the axle mounts on the bottom of the struts to fasten the basket to the wheel then trim down the top of the basket struts that attach to the bottom of the basket.
