Does this bike come with anything in place to put a small bag of groceries or similar so that I can pack along a couple of things on errands?

No, not when I got mine. But I purchased a bag that velcros to the handlebars specifically for bikes which works great. I think I got it at target

It comes with a rear rack. I carried two rubber bungie cords on the rack, and found boxes at the stores I went to.

Hi Barbara - the bike does come with a basket holder for the back (standard amongst bikes), but does not come with a basket per say. I utilize the basket holder and connect a milk carton with some bungee cords and this works out great for when I want fold up the bike. Otherwise with the milk carton still attached, the folding process might not work out as easily as you would like. Hope this helps! Mike

Yes. The rear rack comes with the bike and it is installed when I got my 2nd one about a couple of months ago.

It came with a rack over the rear wheel. You can mount a basket or small sadle bag on it.

No basket included but the two we bought both have a carrier over the rear wheel the you could attach something to. Probably some kind of box that you could strap to the carrier would do the trick.

Mine came by UPS. If the box were too big, I think you could take out the components and transport them that way. The main bike frame is fairly heavy and a bit unwieldy, but probably manageable. It isn't too difficult to assemble, but a second pair of hands is very necessary, or at least helpful. The finished product is worth the effort for someone like me who is fairly infirm due to chemo. But I am very pleased with it. Good luck!

i kind of doubt it but you could use plastic grocery bags to cover unit during bad weather or when you wash the bike good luck

the basket is not overly large. You could probably put one full paper bag of groceries in it.

No. Every thing you need comes attached to the bike rack. It's a great rack!

The bag has slots in it. It comes with Velcro straps to wrap around 4 points on the bike frame. They hold it in place very tightly. Also comes with clear protective tape for the frame where the straps make contact.

Yes! We put groceries in it when we shopped at the beach. You just have to remember to put the delicate items on top.

Yes, but I found that the small clip to keep the basket folded tight wasn't sufficient - it was too small and too tight to easily fold/unfold. I purchased some carabiner clips to keep the basket attached to my bike, and always kept the basket open.

There should be enough room for baskets on both ends of the bike as it is quite roomy and covers a good size

It folds in the middle and becomes a small package. The bike is well built and there is nothing you have to be copncerned about with this product. ENJOY!!!!!

with a large pannier rear rack pack, i have little trouble hauling around up to 50 lbs of gear or groceries, a smaller pack would probably work for what you want to do as well.I will warn you, unless your 5'10" or taller, this bike might be a little too big for you.

Nope. It's an aftermarket item. For a while they were sold through Sun, but now you have to do an internet search for baskets. Amazon had them listed, but when I started to order one, they were sold out. I can't remember the website where I actually got to order one, so be diligent. My son's bike and mine both have a basket (We have Easy 3s), and they are much more convenient than panniers.

Probably not big enough to pack enough clothing or gear for overnight. It is just right for bike gear, a bottle of water and a little snacking food or a sandwich or two.

No.It has side pockets with zippers, but they don't fold down. I have theseparate Ibera clip-on panniers.

Yes they fold up to a very streamline carrier. I love it. If I get groceries I can unfold one or both sides to carry them home. There is an adjustable strap to hold the unfolded bag to the bike frame so that they don't flop around while riding

No, if you want a bike that folds look for one that says that it folds. Those I think are higher priced. It doesn't use up to much space.

It comes with a metal frame that hooks over the handlebars, then the basket sits in this frame. I've carried a gallon of milk + other groceries and the basket has held strong with the weight. The basket can be easily removed to take into the store, and the frame stays fixed to the handlebars.
