I bought an Electra Townie 3 last week! Electrabike.com offers several accessories for both the Townie and the Amsterdam. I like the cup holder (clamps on handlebars), wicker basket, and bell. I like the idea of all 3. I went to the beach this past weekend. Pedestrians on the seawall don't always walk in a straight line. They zig zag. I noticed most bicycle riders had either a bell or squeaky thingy (annoying).
Can all 3 accessories fit together? Or is it either or?
The baskets include mounting brackets. Would that allow me the flexibility to only have it hanging when needed? Or would the mounting brackets make it permanently affixed? I don't need a basket everyday.
I could do basket only - for carrying water bottles, food, magazine. But what if I buy my latte???? :confused: It would spill. That's why I thought cup holder.
Just wondering what works for everyone!
They also sell a kids sized wicker basket with belt straps. It seems like I could remove easiest.
I highly recommend the Electra Townie 3 for comfort and fun. Pretty too.
