AlexZ Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Well my mate moved down to Slough a few months back, I haven't seen him in ages but we arranged to meet at Lady Bower for a spot of mountain bike yesterday... I've seen some road race bikes in the back of the Z, but I havent found a MBR yet... I'm not a big rack lover although I do like Carolines design the most up to now... 40mins of messing about and it was in...only draw back is I had to rest the front wheel on the passanger seat (covered of course). alexz Quote
Pimm Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 I would love to see the return journey with a muddy mtb in the back of the zed Quote
AK350Z Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Good effort mate, some assembly required eh? Quote
AlexZ Posted November 23, 2009 Author Posted November 23, 2009 I would love to see the return journey with a muddy mtb in the back of the zed Haha, always thinking , I took a leather and theres a bike wash there. Most cycle centres have a hose or jet wash for you to clean the muck off...It did rain for the 5 hours we were riding and while I packed it away... Alexz Quote
AlexZ Posted November 23, 2009 Author Posted November 23, 2009 AND you got your shopping in! Haha there is a little food in there but mainly bike parts and gear.... Alexz Quote
AlexZ Posted November 23, 2009 Author Posted November 23, 2009 Good effort mate, some assembly required eh? Just both wheels and pedals, oh I also had to reduce the front suspension to 95mm... Alexz Quote
Shuck Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 Now that is a good effort! I wouldn't like to try that at all, but I'm luck that I only live 12 miles away from the hills where we all go biking, so I just ride there and ride back. Is this going to be a regular thing and do you reckon you can get the loading time down from 40 minutes now you know what you are doing? Quote

Haha, yeh man the time is about 3-5 mins now...longest time is waiting for the drivers seat to slide & tilt forwards. Once you have the seat in the most forward postition, just slide the bike in over the strut brace (into the front seat area) then slide the rear of the frame back under the strut brace if you get me...Bish Bash Bosh. I normally ride with a mate who has a van so thats simples... But were needs must etc i can make it work.. Alexz Quote
