Hi Kevin.
If you're able to read German, this website offers sufficient
information:
http://www.db.de/site/bahn/de/reisen.../bahnbike.html

The phone number to get to talk to somebody from Die Bahn is:
[+49] 1805-151415
Bike tickets are 3 euro or 6 euro, depending on whether you take a
Nahverkehrszug (local train) or not.

If you take an IC-train (ticket: 6 euro, bike another 6 euro) you must
make reservations for the bicycle.

Yes. There's a train from the main station to the airport. You may have
use the transit on the airport, since the train stops at one only one of
the terminals. The other one is too far away to walk with a packaged bike.
