Default 3IS F Sport Trunk. Can it fit a road bike?

I am considering purchasing the IS with F Sport.

For those that have made the purchase, are you happy with the storage space in the trunk?

Can a bike fit into it?

There do not appear to be many options to transport a bike with the IS.

Thanks 4TehNguyen. I agree that it should be possible. It would be great if there is someone who has experience to share how well or badly it works getting a bike into and out of the trunk.

Yakima whispbar setup. Not my ride. Google "Gordon ting SEMA" for more info. Looks like basic Yakima whispbar setup

Tried it with a loaner I got.
It should fit but I have problems with the seatpost and pedals not clearing the top the opening.
