Assateague Front Mount Bike Basket
The Assateague (pronounced 'as-uh-teeg') is named for the peaceful sand covered barrier island off the coast of Maryland. This state park is home to a herd of wild ponies. We named this basket in honor of the tough little horses that thrive in the sun and storms of Assateague island. Visitors to Assateague are rewarded with one of the most stunning natural beaches in the United States, where the crowds are nonexistent, and the wild beauty is open to lovers of camping, bicycles, and of course, dogs. Pet friendly camping on the beach is encouraged and this is one of the only beaches in America where dogs and horses can be seen together. But please don’t disturb the horses!
This willow basket is designed around a metal frame for maximum durability and coated with a clear resin to protect the lovely hand woven willow from the salt air and sun. The Assateague includes metal hooks that connect to your handlebars, and a steel reinforced handle in order to conveniently carry your items when you're not using your bicycle. This is one sturdy basket. Great for carrying dogs, items from the market, picnics… the possibilities are endless. Makes a great gift for that special bike and dog lover.
Use of a bicycle bracket brace (included) is required when carrying dogs in this basket. This is a very large basket. The bracket will ensure correct alignment on your bicycle and help properly distribute the dog's weight to the bicycle.
Includes Two (black) basket leashes and a front mount bracket to mount your bicycle's handlebar.
Please see our complete line of Basket Accessories for beautiful handmade liners and pillows that fit this basket.
Dogs should always be secured with a Basket Leash (included). Other colors available.

Customer Reviews
We love this basket. It’s a second one we bought for our second bike. Very comfortable for our dog and looks great
I have always wanted a front mount basket for my 15 lb chi mix. But I was concerned that it was too much weight for the front. This basket is so well made and the weight is distributed in such a way that it feels safe to ride….nice & solid. My dog was comfortable right away. You get what you pay for. This is a quality product and so easy to “install.” It slips right over the handlebars. I do not hesitate to recommend this product.
Sophie loves peddling around town and being the center of attention!! Everyone loves her.. & the basket, of course.. which is well made & stylish! Well worth the purchase! Can’t wait for my new lil pup to try it out this summer!!
Perfect size. Snapped on in seconds—no tools. Absolutely perfect.
Well-made product and a complement to my bike. My pup loves it! Definitely recommend!!
