Can the RV Bumper 2 Bike Rack Be Used Around a Spare Tire on a 20 Foot Jayflight Travel Trailer
Question:
can I use this bike rack on my 20 Jayflight Travel Trailer that has a share tire on the back. I do not want the one that goes over the spare tire.

The RV bumper bike rack # S80605 would be a great choice for your tent trailer, because it offers an easy install and will accept many different styles of bikes.
As long as your spare tire does not extend past the face of the rear bumper on the trailer you should have no problems mounting the carrier and installing your bikes.
This bike rack is made for continuous welded steel square bumpers at least 4 inches and no more than 4-1/2 inches wide. The only thing you should note is that the 2 bikes would both need to be similar lengths, as the wheel loops on the bike rack are connected to each other.
If you need room for a spare tire that extends past the face of the rear bumper, you could also use RV bumper rack # S80605, which would allow you to access the spare tire by simply removing 2 pins.
If you wanted to install a hitch for use with a hitch mounted bike rack, I have included links to all the RV hitches we offer, as well as a link which gives you some hitch mounted bike racks that would be compatible.
