I heard on another forum that mountain bikes would not fit in the trunk of the TSX so I decided to give it a shot before I shelled out for a rack. It wasn't the easiest thing, but I was able to maneuver my 19" Specialized frame into the trunk.

LOL :lol: I have the same bike, same year, same size and do that all the time. It's a big plus. I put the rear wheel through the back though - maybe I should try it the other way.

The lack of folding rear seats in the TL may inhibit me from buying one someday. What a dumb omission - I don't care if it does increase structural rigidity.

edit: I have the same color interior/exterior TSX also. Stop trying to be me ! ;)

Man, you're car must be sweet!! :) (and you're bike, haha)

Yeah one of the main reasons I went with the TSX over the Legacy (aside from the fact that I can't seem to stay away from Honda) was the rear seat folding down. I can't believe all sedans don't have this option!!

Cool, another NBP w/ Parchment! :fro: :thumbsup:

BTW, Trek MTBs are better! ;)

NBP with Parchment = class :thumbsup:

Trek < or = Specialized :gapteeth: j/k

I was impartial when I bought the bike...It was a leftover so I took it for a steal. :thumbsup:

Hey, I do that too!

But I have a Specialized Sirrus Comp Cyclocross bike and not a mountain bike.

Well, that and the fact I have a CG/EN. :)
