In the early seventies Nico van Balveren, at the time still a bicycle retailer, started with the development and production of various models of bicycle baskets. In 1976 Nico established 'N. van Balveren Riet Import-Export', later shortened to BASIL. Their goal has always been to be known as reliable, innovative and progressive.

A genius front basket from Basil, the Basimply Wicker Basket comes with a strong mounting bracket that fits securely on your bicycle's stem. The basket then snuggly clips into the bracket making it easy for you to take the basket on and off in a matter of seconds!
