I am the owner of Basil (from the bags & baskets at www.basil.nl). I saw your messages about our bags & baskets. Sorry to keep the US waiting for our products! We are still looking for the right importer (an energetic bicycleparts wholesaler who covers most of the US). But we surely will find one, don\'t worry. Untill than, you can buy them at some onlinestores (but the shippingcosts and Dollar/Euro make the products not soo cheap). Thanks for your patience. Marthijn To all Basil fans,

I look forward to that happening more often! Maybe I'm overly optimistic, but I swear the next generation of Portland's children will be raised with these as the family vehicle. At least, mine will be. My smile gets a little bit bigger when I’m riding around town and I see someone on a Bakfiets. I look forward to that happening more often!

Gorgeous shop! Gorgeous products. Any plans to carry Basil bike panniers and bags from the Netherlands anytime? (Pretty pretty please with a cherry on top)... http://www.basil.nl/ I am in love with one of their particular bag so much it hurts. It's a large practical, pretty evening handbag bag, vinyl, english tea rose pattern, carry handles, that hooks onto your panniers! Great shop, wonderful job.
