Does anyone know if a full size bike (with the wheels off) will fit in the back of a ve??

Thanks

Bike in Back seat of VE

I will assume you just want to take the front wheel off. Then I would say no. But if you had no rear fender and could rotate the handle bars inward
and protect the canopy from the bike, yes with both the front wheel and the rear wheel off you could get the bike into the VE. And there is bicycle hardware that allows one to cut the frame, fold it back on inself and then reassemble in minutes. Cary Thomas commuted from Palamar to LA, I believe, with a bike in the back seat of his VE to take him from the LA airport to work. He has sold his pride and joy, Sky Slug, and has not been heard from for a while.  :)
