I have a 95 Ford e150 conversion van. &nbsp;I'm thinking of getting a rooftop container made by Thule, Yakima, or whatever. &nbsp;Anyone know if my Mobic brand folding bicycle with 20" wheels can fit in one of those rooftop containers? &nbsp;The inside of my van is already so packed with stuff, I simply cannot store even a folding bicycle inside.<div><br></div><div>Thanks! -Casey</div><div><br></div>
 
I found the answer! The Yakima Skybox 18 container will fit not just one but two of my Mobic folding bicycles with 20" wheels. The container and optional rack for my Ford E150 van will cost about $900 from REI Sports store. I'm in no rush, but may do this soon as REI is having a rebate sale in Yakima products later this month in June.
 
Hate that those racks/containers are so expensive but glad you found a solution.<br>
 
Search Google for your <span id="post_message_1273804507"> Yakima Skybox 18. I see it in several places for around 500.00. I also see the rack in the 250.00 range. I thing that would still save you some money.<br /></span>
