Will a Mountain Bike fit in Trunk? - GreenHybrid

Guys,
I bike a lot and would be interested to know if a regular sized mountain bike would fit in the trunk (with the front wheel removed).

Thanks!

Don't know how the Camry's dimensions are, but I had very poor luck fitting a mountain bike in my '92 Toyota Corolla with back seat down. It fit, but not without scratching both the bike and the trunk lip (and nearly breaking the trunk light.

Camry is a larger vehicle than the Corolla but maybe it'll be a better fit. I ended up with a Saris trunk bike rack mount for the Corolla.

Camry hybrids trunk is small. I don't think you can fit a mountain bike in it.

Actually, I think it will, given that someone has fit a large suitcase in it, or a double-stroller. But I need to know from someone who has the car and has tried it.

I have seen the trunk and it's not that small!

Thanks,
SR.

A greasy bike in my trunk??? Not today, maybe tomorrow! Be sure to throw in a couple of wet, smelly dogs, too. Hehe.

Actually, you might have luck with the bike in the back seat, with the seatbacks folded down.
