panniers w/ folding basket?
hey all. i've got a question. i'm debating on getting either wald or sunlite's folding basket(a complete pair, not just one). i've got a rear rack and a pannier that i got from nashbar thats a garment bag. i need it for work to keep my clothes nice. i guess i've got 2 options i guess. either add a front rack and mount the collapsable baskets on the front rack(if they'll fit) or add the baskets to the rear rack. i'm wondering if i add them to the rear rack how it'd affect the pannier that i have? does anybody actually have a basket attached to a rack where they also have panniers on? also how big are the racks? are they, say, large enough for a gallon of milk or so? thanks for your help.

How are thinking of using both at the same time? The Sunlite is slightly bigger than the Wald. Your bag would have to drape over the baskets- folded or not, though I don't know how that would affect the mounting of your bag.
