Attaching a Wald Basket to a rack
 
Hey folks,
I was wondering if other than zipties, there is a good way to attach a wald basket to a front rack.

Thanks!

I've been using hose clamps (the screw and band kind) and the same set of 4 is holding just fine since 1999.

I prefer zip ties as it makes more convenient.

I found I had better results with less shifting if I used some small slit pieces of hosing around the rack frame.

I'll second the hose clamps, which I use for a Wald folding rack on the back of the bike. Cheap, very effective (they won't jiggle loose like P-clamps sometimes do), and there seems to be less chance of theft than using zip-ties.
