Our 2013 Jayco Jay Feather X213 has a cargo door into a bunk/storage space that is perfect for bikes. It also has a rear slide for a king bed. 21 foot box, 23 foot overall travel length.
Thank you. Do two adult bikes fit through the door without disassembly? Also, how does the rear slide work out?
The rear slide just comes in over the couch and table (both must be folded flat). We've actually had issues with our slide, but apparently that's not indicative of Jayco as it's not a common issue or they wouldn't be making the model still. The bike door is wide enough to put two bikes in, and the bottom bunk straps up. We've just used the space for storage and have never hauled bikes as I would think they would move around and fall over personally unless you have some kind of bike rack or stand to hold them upright.
Coincidentally we just looked at the North Trail FX23 this past weekend, and you wouldn't be able to get two bikes in there. The door is really narrow, I'm not sure how one would get a bike through to begin with. The handlebars would have to go through almost sideways. I was disappointed, I expected better from North Trail. What I did like though was a sliding door that you could close off and keep that area separate from the rest of the trailer, that was a neat idea. Wish we had that on our X213.
