The front of the basket is the side with the lower wall.

Make sure the front of the basket is facing the seat.

Push the basket straight down and back until you hear a “click.”
This sound confirms the basket is securely locked onto the rack.

Use a 4mm Allen wrench to tighten accessories securely.
Secure Your Cargo
Secure your items in the basket using the MOD Cargo Net.
Carry Your Best Friend
You can safely carry your pet using the MOD Pawsenger Pet Carrier.
Attach Your Own Accessories
You can also attach your own accessories, such as a milk crate, using secure straps or bungee cords.
Troubleshooting
Basket won’t click or lock into place → Double-check that the front notches are facing the seat. The slider must be oriented correctly. Make sure the keyhole pins on the rack are aligned with the slots on the slider before pressing down. Check that there’s no debris or obstruction inside the rack slots.
Basket feels loose or wobbly after installation → Ensure the slider has fully “clicked” into place. If it still feels loose, use an Allen wrench to slightly tighten the bottom barrel nuts and try again. Repeat the process until the basket fits snugly.
⚠️ Note: Do not ride if the basket is loose. Re-secure before use.
