R Pod 179 Bike Rack Recommendation to Fit Around Spare
Question:
I found a Thule spare-mount bike rack like this one th963pro and was alarmed when asking around that the spare tire connection point may not support the spare + 2 bikes. I cant seem to find any info supporting this either way. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!

Expert Reply:
The Thule SpareMe part # TH963PRO cannot be used at the rear of camper so this would not work for your Rpod. Instead you'd want a bike rack like the Swagman Around the Spare part # S80501 which would work well for you. It attaches to the camper bumper and fits around the spare.
