Can you get a 29er Mountain Bike into a Tri Pacer

[martinbguk]

Well, yes you can.
Open all doors for extra wiggle room.
Tilt seats forward.
Rear seat out.
Even room for soft bags.
I would move the bike seat in future though.20190423_090720.jpg20190423_090731.jpg20190423_090738.jpg

Great you tried before me. I’m preparing for a trip out West to the High Sierra fly in and was hoping to be able to take my bike along.

Just be careful wiggling it into place.
If I took the seat off, or just lowered it, then getting it in would be easier.
I also pushed the rear seat back cushion into the luggage bay where it happily wedges in place.
I've attached the bike dimensions. Mine is a large.

Have fun in the high sierras.

Getting a mountain bike in is impressive! I thought I was doing well to get 2 folding bikes into my Clipper.

It's my main bike.
If I didn't have one then I would buy a folding bike like you.
I want to spend less on bikes, more on flying ;-)
I also have an electric skateboard, but that needs a bigger motor because I'm a fat bloke.

How about 2 bikes, a trailer, 8 man tent with queen size air mattress, 2 folding chairs, a stove and misc stuff;-)

Dean, all you need is oversized tires and you can show the Super Cub guys what a real back-country airplane is capable off.

I put two "Euro Mini" 7 speed folding bikes, tent, sleeping bags and the rest of my camping gear in the back seat area of my Pacer.

I keep the oversized tires on my plane....and share my ample beer supply with the poor Super Cub guys.

That's really impressive, but doesn't leave much room for beer!
A small framed mountain bike (or even two) can fit there too, wheels removed, back it in with seat over the upper seatback crossbar.
If the seatback is not permanently attached to the sling, it's easy to take out the seat bottom, seatback, lower sling frame, then roll or lay the sling on the hat shelf. Load all your stuff in there, then lay the sling back over it all like a tarp.

BobC supplies them with ice cream with his ShortWing.
