PetSafe Happy Ride Sport Cat & Dog Bicycle Basket

This bike basket itself is sturdy and well-constructed, and was fairly easy to install. The sun shade is pretty flimsy/chintzy--and you have to stick the wire into the bag to install it. After time, I worried that it would begin to rip the bag. I was really excited about this bike bag, but unfortunately it didn't work out for my 10.5 lb Chihuahua-Terrier mix. First, I would not recommend a 10.5 dog go in this because it greatly reduced my ability to steer easily, and more importantly, quickly. Second, my dog only fits in the basket sideways and needs to turn his head to see straight ahead. I wish the basket were large enough to allow him to sit facing forward.

Attempting to put this together was incredibly difficult. In fact, I haven't been able to figure out how to complete the mounting hardware that attached basket to bike. This is very disappointing considering the amount of money I paid for this item. It is currently sitting on the floor in the garage. I live alone, and have NO ONE to assist me in putting it together. It was basically a waste of money.

To be fair I had a bracket on my trek bikes front ( to bungee packages or helmet on ) so my son assembled this for Mother’s Day , he sat it on top of existing bracket so it’s very solid on bottom! - I have 16 lb Westie that loved it from ride one ! She sat straight up on her butt , not moving strapped in looking straight ahead ! She adored the wind in her face ! ( now I’m awaiting a bike pump to get her back on her rides !we can ride to the dog park where her friends are ! I bought this in may (elsewhere )when these were sold out everywhere! I wanted the wicker one bad, but couldn’t find it anywhere ! I normally but every thing from chewy but had to pay about 80$ for this from another pet place To be fair I had a bracket on my trek bikes front ( to bungee packages or helmet on ) so my son assembled this for Mother’s Day , he sat it on top of existing bracket so it’s very solid on bottom! - I have 16 lb Westie that loved it from ride one !

Bought the PetSafe bike basket with high hopes of rail to trail riding, with 4 lb. pup who is calm in the basket. The basket itself is heavy, but it secures well to the bike. The trouble is steering, which creates a wobbly feel. After four outings on level asphalt surfaces and very fine gravel surfaces, I still can't get used to the wobbling every time I steer the slightest bit in a different direction. Want to love this basket, but it's just not happening. Will request to return it, with much regret, and find a basket that doesn't wobble with a 4 lb. dog.

This is a great basket, easy to put together and roomy for a small dog. I have a 6 pound puppy and she fits comfortably. She has a 10lb brother and they both love to be close together. I will buy another one, just so they don't always have to go in one basket.

My Yorkie boy absolutely loved his bike basket rides on our vacation/camping trip. The harness tether clip kept my dog secure inside the basket and he was able to sit comfortably and have a good view of his surroundings. The basket is securely held on to the front of the bike with the handlebar attachment and basket strap. I would suggest for smaller dogs less than 10 lbs, to add extra padding to the bottom of the basket to raise your dog up a bit higher . The basket has plenty of pockets for belongings and we also used the basket as a car seat on our truck’s center console. Our pup loves car and truck rides too!

This carrier works great for my two small dogs. They are 6 and 7lbs. and they fit comfortably in the carrier. I like that you can easily take the carrier off when the dogs are riding with me. Very well made and thought out.

Dale weighs 13 pounds and the bag supports him perfectly. Our last bag was cheap and had no support and would end up touching the tire. This bag doesn't move when Dale is in it. The cheap bag caused problems with the shifter cables. This bag has a bracket that keeps the bag off the bikes headset and doesn't pinch cables.

This is a fabulous, sturdy front basket for small dog, I would say 10 lbs or less... otherwise, the added weight could make steering difficult. I would highly recommend. Excellent design and quality. Easy to install. Easy to remove basket when not needed.

We had no problems with the instructions or putting it on my 10 speed bike! I put my 11 pound Yorkie in the basket, hooked him in and took him for a quick test ride. He loved it. He fits comfortable in it and can actual move around to reposition if needed. We took a 2 mile ride in the neighborhood and he did wonderful with watching cars go by and even seeing squirrels. I also took my 7 pound cat for a ride. He uses a harness like the dog and we also hook him up with the attached lead. He had plenty of room and after about 3 minutes or so he settled down and really enjoyed being outside and going for a ride. The basket seems well made and I love all the pockets so I can carry my phone, water, We had no problems with the instructions or putting it on my 10 speed bike!
