Bikes and the RV10

Hello folks, just thought I’d share my experience with our new pedal bikes that fit in our RV10. They work great! Last week I purchased two bikes that fold in half and then stow in a convenient carry bag. The bike name is Change and we got the full sized road bikes. The are well built and weigh in at around 23lbs. We did a 55 mile ride with 4000 foot of climb this weekend in central Vermont, just beautiful and the bikes worked great! For me this opens up the usefulness of the 10 even that much more. We have many more trips planned.
Two bikes once in the bags easily set right in the back seat, no fuss!
Here are a couple of photos:

Do they fit in the baggage compartment or does it have to sit on the back seats?

Been looking at the Change but can’t find any locally to actually see. How was the frame size. I’m 6’04 and generally a XL, but sometimes a Large frame. Which model did you chose. Sounds like it was a great ride.

No, not in the baggage compartment, they are full size 700c bikes that fold in half but they fit nicely in the back seat without having to take he seats out.

I am 6’-0 and went with the large: 520, my wife is 5’-8 and we went with the medium:490 for her. I rode my wife’s a few times and I could also ride that with a longer stem for extended rides. Her’s fits in the bag a little easier and is lighter feel when riding. The XL would just about be touching rear window to window in the cabin. That’s the handle bar end to the end of the seat.
