Carrying a bike

[Lakes_Puma]

I was playing around a bit this weekend to see how I could fit a bike in the back of the Cali, I have a tow bar rack, but sometimes I want to be able to transport a bike inside.

I found I could remove the drivers side rear seat and then with the parcel shelf flap lifted, I could fit a road bike with the front wheel removed.

It was leaning on the remaining rear seat which I had folded the backrest forward and flat on top of the seat base, and this seemed to keep it secure while driving.

I doubt I'll be able to fit my 200mm wheelbase enduro as easily. But I'll try.

Next time I'm going to try front wheel off and in the other way round so the handle bars are towards the rear, turning them 90 degrees might create a but more room.

If I remove the shelf I can JUST get the bike in like this with the rear seat fully forwards (54 frame with a 110 stem)View attachment IMG_0766.jpg
