These bikes look LONG - and I'm curious to know if you take the wheels off would you be able to fit the frame in there?

I fit my stratus in my little ford escort, but I had to take the seat off and drop the handle bars down. Why would you need to fight off you'r daddy?

I easily put a TE in a Taurus wagon with the front wheel removed. It will go in a Accord with the Handelbars pulled down and no front wheel. They are not any longer than a regular bike with the front wheel removed from the recumbent . The width of the big handlebars is the hardest to get in the little car.
