I'm currently building up a trek soho s as a grocery bike, and was thinking about putting moustache bars onto it.
I'm yet to buy the front basket, but i was considering going with wald's mesh lift-off basket (http://www.amazon.com/Wald-933GB-Lift-Off-Bicycle-Basket/dp/B000YBEKDI/ref=sr_1_30?ie=UTF8&s=sporting-goods&qid=1205170973&sr=1-30).
Does anyone know if this basket is compatible with moustache bars?
I should have no problems mounting the basket if the bars are mounted "upside down" (rise instead of drop), but i'd like to mount them the standard way if possible.

Thanks!

I've got the non mesh version of that one my commuter with 44cm time trial bars. It fits comfortably between the bars.
