If the bikes are packed in a protective shell, there might be some issues in getting them through the door (too wide, if memory serves, and tilting on an angle would be limited due to the position of the #1 engine unless they removed the belt loader and lifted the box up from the ground), but they may be able to get them on. If they're sent out to the aircraft as is, it shouldn't be an issue.
Enjoy your trip, Altaflyer!
i'm 6'3'' and i remember having to squat a LOT in that pit while standing. but 6' probably seems right.
