While there’s a lot of focus on rust prevention on frames and drivetrains, there often isn’t a lot of thought put into saving bike accessories, like baskets, from the same orange-coated fate.

Available in two heights, the Tanaka bike basket comes in four limited edition colors. From teal, army green, dark grey, brick, and lunar green, there will be no shortage of color matching possibilities. The basket is also available in a raw or black, and retails for $29.95 USD (full) and $28.95 USD (half).
