Fits Bolt Pro fine
Some are saying it doesn’t fit Bolt Pro but it does. It just takes some figuring out. I’ll try to make it easier for those considering buying it as I just installed it five minutes ago as the image I included shows.First install the u bracket that attaches the hole where the fender attaches using the original bolt that came with the fender. Make this bolt fairly tight but not so tight that you strip the bolt or fender attachment.Then slide the seat post clamp onto the seat post with the rubber spacer sleeve with the lipped end on the top.Attach and clamp the seat post to your preferred height.Attach the two long bracket arms to the basket as shown on the video. Make the bolts snug but loose enough so that these arms can still swing.Take one of the 6 small screws and washer and align the far end of basket arm with the 3rd innermost hole on the u bracket. Tighten this screw but don’t make it so tight that the arm can’t swing on the u bracket. Do the same on the other side. DONT WORRY at this point if the basket arms don’t align with u bracket as my pic shows. Just put the screw into the 3rd innermost hole but keep it somewhat loose. The basket arms are installed on the OUTSIDE of the u bracket.This step is the most important. Because the bolts are still somewhat loose on basket arms you need to now make sure the basket arms are aligned with the u bracket by grabbing onto the basket and pushing it up or down until the u bracket and basket arms are aligned straight. Then put in the last 4 screws into the 2nd and 3rd furthermost holes on the u bracket.This will dictate how high or low the seatpost clamp should be. Push up or down on the basket until it is level with the ground and then put the bolt into the seatpost clamp and tighten all the way also make sure the swing arm clamp is tightened as well.Tighten all bolts on u bracket and basket and fender bolt. Check that the fender is aligned and not touching tire and adjust accordingly. The basket should feel solidly attached and can accept any weight. Just like my pic.Again the basket does fit as several pics in reviews and my review already show. If yours doesn’t appear to fit you are just not installing it correctly. If you look at the image just to the right of mine the purchaser only put one bolt into the basket swing arm and attached it to the furthermost hole on the u bracket so the u bracket and basket arms don’t align straight. This setup can’t support any weight and the support arm will just collapse because it’s bent. You have to use all 3 holes and 3 bolts on both sides of the u bracket and make sure the support arms are straight. This requires pushing the basket up and down until you can align the bracket arms. Start by keeping the bolts fairly loose so you can do this. I agree the instructions were not clear but I hope this helps.

Super sturdy - great customer service
When my basket arrived a bold and a couple of washers were missing - within 48 hours Jetson got me a new one out. There is a helpful video on their site to help with installation. It went together pretty easy and it is super solid and sturdy - a great addition to my favorite campground bike!

Not a great fit, missing parts
This basket is not easy to attach to the jetson bike, which doesn't help when you aren't sent all the necessary parts for the bolts and nuts. Missing parts and not an easy fit, and the basket isn't even very large. I was hoping this would be big enough to put a basketball in so we could ride the bike to the park, but the basket is too narrow. Would not recommend.

Missing required tools.. but still works!
The installation of this bike basket on my Bolt Pro was mostly easy, but I didn't expect that when I would reach the literal last step that I would be down a screw and a nut due to improper packaging. The bike basket still works, it's just connected to the bike seat stem by 1 arm and not 2 like intended. Bike basket came with a neat lil bungee cord so that's a plus.

Missing hardware
Looks like all parts were just thrown in a box, or could've been previously used. Missing a few nuts and bolts essential for installation. Luckily I had some spare hardware that did the job. Overall it looks great and is fairly sturdy and easy install. Pricey for something that is probably used and missing hardware so 3 stars.

Works great
This rear basket works great I had it installed on my bike so good and tight that it never moved at all even when I had a load in it. Its made with great craftsmanship and installed properly will last along time to come..I'm more than happy with my rear basket and i would recommend to anyone

So yeah no instructions
Okay so it doesn't come with instructions which seems to be what everyone is complaining about, but they all seem to forget it does have video instructions in the pictures displayed on Amazon so......this point seems to be mute. The only problem I came across was that it appears in the pictures that the basket connects higher up, closer to the bottom of the seat, but to be level and attach the brackets the way the are in the picture it had to go below my seat clamp on my Jetson Bolt. But I do love this new edition to bike it has a sleek look. It does obstruct my rear light a bit but I just clip and old bike light on the license plate mount on the back of the basket.😁
