Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does the basket come with an adapter plate already installed?

Yes. The XLC BA-B14 ships with a pre-mounted MIK 2.0 plate — attach it to any MIK-compatible rack straight out of the box with zero assembly.

Is this basket compatible with my existing MIK 1.0 rack?

Yes. The basket is fully backward compatible with MIK 1.0, so it works seamlessly on both the older and newer MIK rack generations.

Can I use this basket on a rack without a carrier system?

Yes. The universal hole matrix supports the XLC BA-X31 fixed-mount plate, enabling secure fitting on standard racks with no click-in system.

Will the basket rattle while riding?

No. The rubber-coated handle and the secure MIK click-lock mechanism ensure a completely rattle-free experience on the road.

Can the basket stand on its own when removed from the bike?

Yes. Integrated feet on the base let the basket stand stably on any flat surface — ideal for loading at the supermarket or storing at home.

No. XLC also offers a 25-litre version (42 × 33 × 25 cm, article no. 2502122021) for riders who prefer a slightly more compact basket.

What is the maximum load capacity?
