WTB VP thin gripster/med. wald basket

[Conway Bennett]

Just like it says. The parts are for my partners bike and rivbike is out of stock on the pedals so I thought I'd try here before patronizing an online undercutter. Thanks in advance.

I forget where you live, but if you have a local bike shop, the Wald basket should be gettable there.  It's a bummer to pay shipping for something as bulky and inexpensive as a Wald basket.

You'd think.  Can't find anything more than a wedge bag unless I go to rei.  I'm in Chicago so tax and shipping just about negate one another.

Fair winds,

Captain Conway Bennett

That is a bummer.  There are several shops in Berkeley and Oakland where I know I can just stroll in and grab basic things like that.  Merry Sales is a distributor that sources many Wald products, so whatever shop you walk into, you could just ask them if they order from Merry Sales.  If they do, then they can get you your Wald basket.  The only reason I recommend that is that shipping costs have gotten so out of hand, you might have a $20 basket that costs $20 to ship.  Either way, best of luck.

I feel like you're misrepresenting our fair city. There are plenty of shops in Chicago that stock Wald Baskets. I've gotten them in the past at Cycle Smithy and Upgrade. I'm sure Boulevard had them in stock. 

BTW, Smart Bike Parts in Logan Square places orders daily with distributors so you can get stuff really fast (next day from QBP) and still keep your $$$ local without paying shipping.

Comrade Cycles has Wald baskets in stock last time I checked. They also keep a fair amount of Riv-ish stuff in stock as well.

I'm loyal to Turin but they don't have what I need. The pedals I'd prefer to buy the thru riv as they made the introduction and undercut everyone but ebay stores. Ultimately the basket's inconsequential. I called rapid transit and they have some selection so I may go that route.

On another note, wasn't one of you Chicagoans makings waxed canvas bags? If so, I need some patchwork done.
