Oh! This would be so cute on my white Electra.
I would love to have a basket for my dog. She weighs 20 pounds, would the metal basket hold her?
Um… is this one of the cutest things or what? I would not only use this on my bike but for just general picnic-ing! I’m also drooling a little over their PUBLIC C7 bike in White.
Oh wow, the basket’s so adorable! If a basket can be called that, haha
Why was the bicycle laying down? Because it was “two tired” to continue.
Not my Schwinn. Kickstand or locked up.
That’s so perfect! I got a bike from Public about a year ago– wonderful company!
oh, this would due so sweet for my electra amsterdam, ever since my old basket was stolen last summer! here’s hoping!
So cute! I love biking all over Austin and would love a cute basket!
Beautiful!
Oh how I adore this basket! And I know my mum would too, so in all truth it would be a wonderful gift to bestow on her. It’s so interesting to see a square basket too..I almost want to fashion it into a backpack! Love your work, Erin! xx
I love the weave of this basket, it’s also very handy for picnics. I think it would fit amazingly with my red burgundy bicycle (and it matches my handlebars!). Great collaboration for this contest. Have a great summer xx
totally digging the modern baby seats. 18 years between my son and daughter (coming soon!) and wow, a lot more swank options for pedaling w/ your tot today.
Wow- my husband would love this for his bike. He rides everyday to work in the summer! Public bikes is a great idea too. Very cute.
Oh, this giveaway is a dream come true!

This would be awesome for taking my bike to the park close to me for picnics!!
A bike like this would be excellent for my girlfriend. I know she doesn’t fancy the idea of riding an aggressively styled road bike like the one I own so a step-through framed bike would be more ideal for her.

OH this basket is going to look so cute on my trusty old bike! :)
