I need a rental car for my bike but I'm not sure how small a car I can
get. I don't own a car and going to the rental place to try out cars,
which is to far away, isn't an option. I have a Trek 800 Sport
mountain bike. More or less a standard sized bike. Taking the front
wheel off is easy enough. I haven't messed with the back wheel and not
sure how easy that is.
The biggest car I can get, with out spending to much (I'm in near NYC),
is a Ford Taurus. Cheaper cars are similar to the Elantra and
Cavalier.
I'd like any suggestion on how I can make my bike fit into the above
cars and what is feasible. Meaning, not spending 1/2 hour taking the
bike apart and putting it into the car.
Thanks,
Brett
