What Rear Mounted Bike Rack Will Fit On 2005 Honda CRV With Outside Mounted Spare Tire
Question:
I am looking for a Thule bike rack that mounts on the rear side opening door of a 2005 Honda CRV with outside mounted spare tire. Both bikes I carry have step-thru, frames.

Expert Reply:
For your 2005 Honda CRV with the outside mounted spare tire, the Thule Spare Time Bike Rack # TH963PRO would be a great choice.The Spare Time has a total weight capacity of 75 lbs. for two bikes.
If your CR-V has a spare tire cover, it will need to be removed.
With the step-thru frame bikes you will need to use the Thule Frame Bar Adapter, # TH982XT, or the Yakima Adapter Bar, # Y02531, that attaches to the seat post and to the handlebar post to give a level horizontal bar for attaching the bike to the bike rack. You will need one adapter for each bike.
By clicking the provided links, you can see installation instructions and some product demonstration videos.
