Transporting Goods Via Folding Bike
by Larry Lagarde
It can be challenging to transport items on a folding bike.
Being that folders are designed to fold compactly for storage, travel or transit, many folding bicycles have small wheels and shorter bike frames - features that can make it impractical to ride with panniers or even a milk crate strapped to the rear carry rack. Here are some solutions that do work.

A variety of companies make wire baskets that fold when not in use. I like the ones with a wire mesh bottom so items cannot fall through. Wald is one company that makes them; they've been around for about 100 years and most bike shops carry some of their baskets.

Strap It To Your Carry Rack

I've had good results with the Megarack and am testing a wire basket and carry trunk now. Photos and details soon to come.
