I have that Topeak on my hybrid, used to have the same model on my beater until the mounting bracket went south, replaced it with a super huge Wald. I think they are the most attractive of all front baskets, but they are neither light nor particularly strong. The weakness is basically in the way they mount, from near the top and with no undercarriage support. Not a biggie if you are not doing very long runs all the time or trying to carry really heavy stuff-- though as the Topeak basket is not very large, you are unlikey to overload it unless you fill it with a lot of beverages or such. I find about six pounds to be the most I can handle on it with my hybrid before it affects my steering. My bars are modest bows with grip shifts, I imagine flat bars might be a bit more sensitive but they shouldn't keep you from mounting the Topeak successfully. The biggest problem I encounter is the bouncy effect from having front shocks on my bike, and the lack of fork stays on the basket. Riding over bumps tends to pitch smallish items into the air, so for me that Sunlite Bicycle Bungie Cargo Net is a must. YMMV.
