Tesco Green Box Topeak Quick Track Adatper

Do you have a tesco crate box hanging around that is not finding any use? Do you ALSO have a bike with a topeak pannier rack on?

Well do I have news for you my friend, with this nifty device you can turn your old green box into your BRAND NEW BIG BIKE BASKET!

.... This converts a big tesco box (or other boxes) into a big bike basket that will slide onto a Topeak Pannier Rack.

Parts you'll need:

• m4x300m Thread Bolts or these cut up
• 8 m4 x 30mm bolts
• 18 m4 nuts
• 4 m4x80mm bolt
• 1 m6x20mm bolt
• 1 m6 wing nut
• Gravity Gate Latch with locking pin
• A tesco green crate box

Tools

• Hacksaw/grinder
• Drill and drill bits
• Screwdriver

Instructions

• Push the m4 threaded rod through the rail holes. Cut off any excess rod with the hacksaw/grinder.
• Tighten nuts on either side of the threaded rods.
• Find the center line of the tesco crate using a square edge and a tape measure. Mark this on the crate.
• Using the rail as a template and the center line as a guide drill holes in the tesco crate with 5mm drill bit.
• Attach the rail to the crate using the m4x30mm bolts and nuts. The bolts should go through the rail first and the crate second so the bolt heads clear the pannier.
• Find the best placement for the gate latch on the side of the box. Mark where the holes should go on the box.
• Drill out the holes for the gate latch with a 5mm drill bit.
• Attach the gate latch with the spacer to the crate using the m4x80mm bolts and nuts.
• Use the m6 bolt and nut through the gate latch when it is closed to stop the crate from coming off your pannier.
• Done!
