Yo bro Genesis, gd day. :becky:

First, u gotta quest these:

1) Road/ Triathlon or MTB (Mountain Bike)

2) Leisure or Hobby or Competitive

3) Budget

4) Bikes carriage or just into e boot space

5) Just fr yr daughter or whole family

:whistle:

Just Fyi, a std Road & Mountain Bike be it Children or adult size, u'll need to removed e Frt n rear wheels in order to fit into W204 boot. Any ride tat's bigger ie : W211/ W212 or Camry or Tiana, u oni need to remove e frt wheel. Unless u went to tat extend in lowerg yr back seats bt frt wheel removal re necessary still. :hand:

Can use mercedes voucher for purchase? If no, bring ChoCs along to nego!!

Hi hkhamateur,

Actually I got her a Dahon folder bike, while it fit the boots with ample space to spare but apparently it is too big for her. It is more for leisure with budget below $500.

Hope to find a bike for her that could fit in the boots together with the Dahon but i guess it is a challenge...

Thanks for all the inputs.

Yo bro, dun mind me sayg. U n many has e wrong perception n idea of a foldg bicycles liao! :doh:

E main purpose was to cater fr workg class in district areas to get away w many traffic jams as possi, conveniently load into public transports n priority re to promote healthy yet go green factor! :becky:

E term 'foldg' doesn't say it'll fit children bt bt...it can still b done w necessary mod! Bro Blackmercs wil like this lor! :whistle:

W refer to yr budget, boot space utilization n yr daughter age, pls forget these brands completely: Cannondale, Argon18, Specialized, Cervelo, Marin, Cube, SCOTT, Trek, GT, Wheeler, Saracen, Colnago n more as it doesn't meet yr requirement! :hand:

There's some hope tho! Try these brands as nt oni they re a huge bicycle companies tat carry a complete range w wide choice too. GIANT, POLYGON n Haro! :typing:

U may get wat yr daughter need bt bro....u ve to remove e frt n rear wheels and lowerg e seatpost still inorder to hve it hse two bicycles in yr rear trunk! :peep:

Bro bro, roller blade can mod too! Upgrade to ceramic bearg or to a competition roller (which's smaller n need 4pcs) :becky:

Yr favorite term: The mod n poison king! :rockon:

Bro is skate not blade. Blade does not exist during my teen, skate is using 6 pcs of roller rubber material at the bottom. If you own one & the brand is Sekio is consider SLS level. Mine is Chevy.

Hi Cklasse,

Thanks for your advice and probably external bicycle mount is the only option.

Thanks
