Yup. I've seen it done. There's nothing precision or high-tech about mounting these. Find a couple of attachment points at least eight inches apart to clamp to the top wire of the basket, and it's probably a good idea to find a point to tether the bottom of the basket to prevent swinging. The included mounting hardware probably won't work, but a couple of hose clamps from any hardware or auto store will do nicely. My question is - do you want a pair of these? You can order these baskets singly, and I'm wondering even if there was room for two on the back of your chair, one above the other, if you'd want that much of a load on the back.

This should work for you. The person who uses this also uses a three-wheel mobility scooter and she was able to wheel over the hinged area without a problem.

From the technical brochure on the manufacturer's website (http://www.pviramps.com/assets/docs/singlefold.pdf) : "Accommodates wheelchairs and scooters with various wheel configurations." You could always contact the manufacturer and double check for your particular model, of course.

Not knowing the layout of the scooter, The best way in your area someone who's build things and let him look at a picture of the basket and see if he could adapt it to your scooter. The basket a very strong and I not afraid to load it up, just watch the handling.

I am not in a wheelchair; yet it isn't easy to handle this cart. But I saw a similar one at the Container Store in Manhattan. It looked the same but noticed it had a different type of wheels; I tried it in the store and didn't feel it was willy-nilly like Polder's. Look for type of wheels and try out yourself. All I can say is that I won't buy Polder's with the kind of wheels the cart has. Hope my answer was helpful.

Yes! I love the whole unit. You can leave the basket on and it folds flat when you don't need it or just unhook it. The part that attaches to the handle bars connects with velcro and is easily removed. Hope this helps!

If you have a rear wheel quick-release lever, it will not connect properly, but it should work on most others. It came with what was needed. Here are the assembly instructions from the manual, it may help you: 1. Loosely assemble the basket clamp using the short screws and nuts. 2. Set the basket on the rear tire and loosely assemble the neck clamp to the basket clamp using the long screws and nuts. The seat stay tubes of the bicycle frame will go between the basket and neck clamp. 3. Legs mount to either rear axle or the rear dropout eyelet so that the carrier is level. 4. If mounting to axle, remove axle nut one side at a time. Put the leg on the axle and tighten axle nut. 5. Repeat for the other side. 6. Tighten all the bolts and nuts.

I've got a front basket and it works fine. Haven't used for one on the back. The back is a more narrow than the front; so it may be a little snug depending on the size of the basket. Could work okay, just not sure. Sorry!

I love mine it works great. Those two prongs that go into the scupper holes adjust to what ever space you need. It s just a cheap cart but it works well. I'm sorry I'm not sure what you need to know. If your going to put new wheels on this cart I would invest in a better cart .

I'm not sure exactly which rack you're referring to. Unless it's really unusual, the included hardware ought to work. It's very accommodating, and rock solid. Speaking from experience, I would not recommend using bungee cords to attach the basket to your rack. You'd be better off with zip ties or some other rigid form of attachment. These baskets are large and the torque they can apply when turning or leaning over can pull the cords right off ... and then you're left picking up your groceries in the middle of the road. I do keep bungee cords to strap down a jacket, skateboard or other large objects. The basket is big and strong and can easily handle a lot of cargo, provided it doesn't blow or tip out as you ride.

I sent it back due to design flaws. It wasn't safe. The two rear wheels needed to be set back more. As it was the front wheel came off the ground when you tried to walk with it and there was no support. I think I remember that the basket has to come off and the axle bends forward and the two sides come together.

I would say yes. Any tube the size of a bicycle handle bar tube will work. Even if the tube diameter is small, you could probably add a sleeve then attach the holder.

I would say no. The swivel wheels like to move around and get blocked too easily, even on fiarly good sidewalk. And to fold, they have to fold in, so could not just replae with better wheels.

I have not tried to attach this basket to a battery powered scooter but due to the easy way it attaches I would think it would. If the diameter of your handlebars is similar in size to that of a bicycle then it should fit.

It should work. I had the same problem with a shopping cart and the wheels worked fine.

I don't know. Never tried it. But based on knowledge of beach sands and this item - Really soft sand - not at all. medium to firm might be ok. I am not sure what wheeled vehicle/cart works well in really soft sand. You'd need fat tires to make that happen. Good Luck.
