My home made "Basket" rack
So here's my home built basket rack. I've been using it for a while and have been impressed however I have now begun building a new rack which will better suit my needs.(I will put up pics when it is done).

cool as hell. you may need a wind deflector for it as the extra drag will hurt

Yeah, The new one will have an angle to the front, as for wind noise not to bad after I drilled the three holes. Also as for drag, well a tent and stroller, porta crib, camping chairs, shovel and fishin stuff! not worried about it, LOL. wait untill the new one is done, I may just have to patent some of its features! not to brag.
Tight lines!

looks really good....can't wait to see the 2.0 version

the only thing i would suggest is to put the front deflector at a pretty decent angle...somewhere under 45*

and maybe put some mounting tabs on the back and sides to mount lights on it? that's what I did with my coleman rack
