Are you able to attach a basket to the front of the bicycle? Or can it only be mounted to the back?

You can add a basket to either front or back. You will have to mount the front light on the fender to use a smaller basket though.

The front of the bike would most likely be more sturdy than the back attachment to the fender which constantly needs to be adjusted. I advise against buying this bicycle if you intend on carrying anything on it. It is more or less for riding around a suburban neighborhood. It is not a street/commuter bike which they market it as.

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

Actually the bracket attaches to the handlebars, and the basket slides onto the bracket. there are two straps that go through the basket and around the handlebars There is also a curved piece on the bracket that 'rests' against the post that goes down from the handlebars. I have recently had the straps that secure the basket to the handlebars break. I am going today to get a couple of leather dog collars to replace them. Other than that, the basket works great for my 13 lb. fur-companion. I have a lightweight bicycle and have to be careful with the extra weight on the front. With the scooter, it would be great, as long as you have the clearance for the basket, and a post for the bracket to lean on.

I think that you can't place any carrier above the rear wheel. There is basket holder above front wheel. But you have to buy basket extra, isn't part of the bike.

You'd have to have frames attached to either the front or rear to hang the pannier bags from; I've done this on other bikes I've owned. The rack the back battery is on would not be useful (or probably safe) for hanging bags, but if you get the hardware attached properly for hanging bags they should be fine to use.

No. Not without some homemade hardware of Yur devising. It just hangs on to your rear rack by itself. If you wanted to affix it permanently you would need at minimum some nuts and bolts. Mine has never come off. I really like this basket because it stays put and it does lift off the rack easily. How that helps

The basket attaches to the front bar with adjustable straps. It seems like it would work.

I looked at a photo of that bike and if you have the proper carrier/rack to mount these baskets onto, I don't see why not. Looks to me as if the bike has all kinds of mounting points for that sort of project, it's just a matter of choosing a good one that will work with the bike, and accommodate those baskets.

The basket comes with an attachable bracket & brace. I am not mechanical. It took me maybe 10 minutes to secure the bracket & brace to the handle bar stem. The brace gives the basket support & stability. I highly recommend the basket and would buy it again!

Rear bicycle baskets or panners attach to what is called a "rear rack". It would be the black part of the image shown.

No. It comes with pieces that help you secure the right fit for the bicycle frame but none are appropriate for a basket.

I braced my pet basket with a front carrier and a piece of timber which would handle the load you described. However, I would be worried about the bike stability and riding safely, particularly if the dogs moved around a little. I think I'd prefer an arrangement mounted to the rear carrier for improved balance.

Yes but you will probably need to install an aftermarket bracket to install the basket of your choice.

You need to get a separate piece that mounts to the bike forming the upper bar. Then, you can mount this to a carrier rack.

The basket comes with mounting hardware. Two adjustable clips with attached screws come with the basket that you connect the top of the basket to the top of your bicycle rack with. It's been a while since I bought mine but I believe the basket also comes with two polyurethane slip ties that should be used to secure the lower portion of the basket to the bike rack to insure that it doesn't "flop" when you ride - if they don't come with, they are easy to find at any hardware store. The mounting process was easy but once the basket is on, it's on. If you want to remove and reinstall you'll want to make sure you have a supply of the poly fasteners on hand. I have had no problems that other reviewers mentioned with the baskets staying closed and the baskets themselves have remained secure on the bike for almost a year now. The bike they are on has been used on a variety of surfaces with no problems. They do add a fair amount of weight but their usefulness more than offsets that minor issue. Enjoy!

I don't think it'll mount to the front of a bike or to the rear without a rack. It has two bars with threaded holes for allen head machine screws.

I believe the basket can be removed. But some disassembly near where handlebars attach would be necessary to remove a bracket if the existing bracket can't be repurposed for the bigger basket you have in mind. That said, the current bracket was preinstalled on the bike in the box, so I've never actually removed it.
