Bicycles in boot?

[vicsunus]

Does anyone mountain bike or road bike? Are you able to fit your bikes in your rear boot? How about two bikes?
I'm trying to consider the storage space of this car before purchasing.

Thanks!

You could probably fit one bike in there with the rear seats down...

I didn’t know bikes had rear seats

Front wheels removed, I would have thought that two bikes were doable, but I haven’t tried.

Although I’m not sure why taking the front wheels off the RCZ would increase boot storage space

Be aware that the underside of the boot lid has the spoiler mechanism and therefore it and the "panel" covering it reduces the boot space height.

so it seems i may have to turn the handlebars sideways to get bikes to fit.

 

[DKZ5745]

Yes, I would have thought so.

God no !!! Whatever next , people will be putting tow bars on RCZs next

I've never tried, but even one bike would be tricky. I'd imagine you'd need to take the front wheel and pedals off.

The issue is that the parcel shelf is fixed.
however I have managed to fit a 29er in the back by only removing the front Wheel and dropping the rear seats. It’s easier with both wheels off though.
I expect if you took all wheels off you could fit two bikes in, but they might get a bit scratched up.
Other solutions would be to attach a tow bar ( I hear the 308 one fits) and fit a bike rack to that, or use the suction one to the boot lid (watch out for the spoiler). Either of these options would set you back £300+

Bonjour,
Nous faisons du cyclotourisme avec ma femme au sein du club de CANET en ROUSSILLON.
Pour les déplacements je mets les 2 vélos dans le coffre
Mon vélo un LAPIERRE WORLD SERIES et celui de ma femme un BH EVOBIKE.
Il faut baisser le dossier de la banquette arrière,
démonter les 2 roues de chaque vélo
Je range les vélos dans des housses de transport pour ne pas abimer la peinture
positionner les vélos tête-bêche, base arrière du vélo 1 coté gauche et fourche avant vélo 2 coté droit.
Il y a encore de la place pour mettre des bagages avec les vêtements de cyclistes.

Bonne route en RCZ et en vélo
