Not as advertised. There are several issues with this bike carrier. First, this is supposed to be able to hold 3 bikes. The spacing on the forks is at a distance that two bikes if a very common brand almost didn’t fit. I had to have one cradle at an angle to fit the frame. This also made it difficult to fit the third bike because I couldn’t slide it side to side to allow the handle bars and pedals to fit best. When I finally could get the third bike on, the weight, which was under the advertised limit caused the flip up gears to start to bend and almost separate. Because they were plastic, I was afraid they would break if any bouncing occurred during the trip. I tightened the gears as tight as I could get them and there was still a gap in some of the teeth.
Issue two is how it mounted to the tire. The webbing supplied is fairly flimsy. The buckle part of the ratchet barely keeps it tight. The hook to attach to the frame interferes with the window wiper. Once attached, I tried to get it as tight as I could, but even so, it still felt loose, especially when loaded with bikes. After a trip around town, the whole thing was leaning to the side. It would have been better to mount to the tire studs with the lug nuts or other metal bracket and bolts.
When I finally did use it for a longer trip, I was not confident that it could hold three bikes. I was able to only need to drive two bikes. I spent most of the trip worried that it would break while driving on the highway. Straps loosened and the whole thing tilted during this trip.
Overall, this was a waste of money. I would really only trust it for a single bike, and even then, with caution. I would prefer a bike rack with arms that have a metal hinge, or one that pins and locks in place. I would also rather one with arms closer together. I only picked this one because I didn’t have a hitch and didn’t want to mess with a through bolt in the middle of the spare tire.

Yesterday we tried this rack, and I have to say that at first it was a challenge. We installed everything according to instructions, but during our ride to the bike trail the rack started to shift under the weight of bikes, although we placed only two bikes on it. The top bar leaned left about 20 degrees. We had to stop and check the safety of installation. It seemed sturdy enough, although not straight. We made it to our destination, but felt rather nervous over every bump and had to drive slowly. Before our trip back we straightened the rack, and the ride back home was fine without problems and any shifting.
by:
It’s terrible quality, it broke the first time I used it, even though my bikes are not even heavy. I almost caused an accident due to the breaking of the bike rack in the middle of the highway, my bikes fell off and one of them broke ($400 repair)Poor quality, very fragile and there’s no way that it can hold three bikes.

Seems quite sturdy. Retaining straps are a pain to get through the buckles. Recommend setting the rack on a flat surface, I used the truck tailgate, to start the straps through the buckles. Otherwise an easy install , fits tight on the spare tire. I got this to carry our folding wheeled walkers also known as roller-a-raters .
Moving them outside will free up a lot of room for the fur baby .

I was excited to get this and eager to just pop it onto my spare tire like it shows in the video. 45 minutes later and I'm resigned to drilling an extra hole where the buttons are in order to tighten the hold over the tire, and chagrined that I had to "rear" my smaller bike frame angled upwards in order to seat it on the red rack receivers. This was because there wasn't enough room vertically on the frame or horizontally on the frame. Not sure how I would have been able to prepare for that, maybe there is some comment about smaller bike frames somewhere? One strap to secure the bikes is not enough in this situation, so things were strapped every which way, including the front tire of the bike so it wouldn't wobble everywhere. The bike and rack made it home for the maiden 60 mile highway trip, but I was not totally confident with it.

I do not want you to not feel safe to use the bike rack. From what you are describing it sounds like you might need to use a bike adapter bar. It would provide a horizontal mounting point by attaching from the bikes seat post to the handle bar post. To take a look at an example, look at part # 64005, as it fits with a lot of different bikes. Would you be able to send a picture of the bike rack installed and how the bikes are loaded on it?

We received the bike rack very quickly and installed it on our 2011 Rav 4. The rack seems quite sturdy but we couldn't be confident in using it. The straps holding the unit onto the spare tire, when tightened as much as humanly possible, still left the hooks somewhat loose. We simulated a bouncy dirt rocky road and the straps worked their way loose towards the sides of the spare tire thus loosening the whole unit. We felt that the whole thing could easily come off the spare tire taking our new bikes with it. We just felt like it was too risky. The way the Rav 4 spare tire is mounted makes it hard to get the straps all the way straight under the tire and, therefore, leaves them vulnerable to working their way loose and off the tire.

The 2011 RAV4 has two fairly unique features that makes fitting this particular rack a little bit of a challenge. The spare tire is offset on the rear of the vehicle and the spare tire has a smooth, hard cover. If the cover is removed, this rack will fit much better. Because of the offset tire, longer bikes could extend past the edge of the vehicle on the passenger side, which is less than ideal. Although its quite a bit more expensive, the Thule Spare Me, part # TH963PRO allows the arms of the rack to be offset so the bikes will be more centered on the rear of the vehicle.

The eTrailer has been a God send and we are so grateful. Our son-in-law died from COVID last year which left our daughter and two grand-daughters alone. This eTrailer was a gift which allows the three of them to get out for bike rides whenever they need to “clear their heads” and be refreshed in God’s glorious creation. This is the ONLY three bike carrier we know of… and Thank You for making it available. God bless.

2018 Jeep JL Wrangler Unlimited
I received this bike rack 2 days before it was even supposed to arrive! We had purchased another spare tire bike rack (Thule Spare Me) that would not work with the new Jeep JL due to it having to mount through the center of the tire where the camera is. This one installs over the top of the tire and then has straps that go around the tire to secure it. No tools required and we had it on the spare tire in 5 minutes. It seems very secure and we used a cable lock to lock it to the tire to prevent anyone from stealing the rack when the bikes are not on it. Will be heading out on a 1000 mile road trip soon, so that will be the real test.

CHECK THE WEIGHT CAPACITY!! It is designed for ultra-lightweight bikes, although it does not state that on the box or in the product description. The capacity is 33 lbs per bike, whereas most adult bikes are 40+ lbs and children's bikes are around 30 lbs. We loaded this rack with two adult bikes and a child's bike (unaware of the unusually low weight capacity) and the bikes fell off the back of our jeep onto the highway! My husband had to pick them up off the interstate before anyone hit them, risking his own safety. I contacted the company, telling them what happened, and they advised that since one of our bikes was 42 lbs, they would not return the rack (which I had only purchased 2 weeks prior.) I am grateful my husband didn't get hurt, but felt compelled to let others know. The company really should note this on the box or consider re-designing the bike rack to hold bikes of typical weight.

Toyota RAV4
For the price, not bad. This bike rack is a simple design, that's easy to use, but doesn't seem very secure. I have used this on an older model Rav4, which means the bike or bikes are going to stick out more on one side of the vehicle. There seems to be a lot of movement when hitting potholes and bumps in the road. If you don't plan on using this rack often, don't want to spend a lot, this may be for you. Sufficient, but not very sturdy.

  • Will Malone RunWay Spare Tire Bike Rack Fit 2002 Jeep Wrangler X
    The Malone RunWay, part # MPG2148, is confirmed to fit your 2002 Jeep Wrangler as long as you have the factory spare tire. Your only catch is the 35 pound bike because the RunWay has a maximum capacity of 33 pounds per bike. Since you're so close you likely won't have an issue. I definitely recommend loading the heavier bike closest to the Jeep though. You also may need a bike frame adapter bar for the girl's bike to keep it level on the rack. I recommend the Swagman Deluxe, part # 64005.

    Unfortunately Kent, with your 2023 Land Rover Defender having the cover over the spare tire it prevents it from being able to use a spare tire mounted bike rack. The Thule Spare Me 2 Bike Rack # TH963PRO you found is designed to mount using the lug bolts which hold the spare tire.

    Hey Dan! The Yakima SpareRide # Y02599 is only available as a 2-bike rack. Thule had the Spare Me but I believe it is discontinued. I know we no longer carry it. There are some 3-bike models like the Malone Runway # MPG2148 but nothing for 4-bikes. I'm sure putting that much weight, and weight that far out, does not work well for this type of bike rack which is why major manufacturers don't make one.

The HitchSki can only be used with Yakima brand dual-arm hitch mounted bike racks. The Malone Runway is a dual arm rack, but it is not hitch mounted so it would not work.

The only difference is that the Runway is 1.5 pounds heavier than the Hanger and the Hanger comes with anti-sway cradles to keep bikes from contacting each other during transport. Even though the anti-sway cradles are nice to have, I recommend going with the Runway because it is a more economical option. As far as spare-tire fitment,...

    If you want to use a spare tire bike rack like the Malone RunWay 3 Bike Rack part # MPG2148 on a vehicle with rear spare tire, you'll need to remove the spare tire cover while the rack is in use. In addition to scratches, the spare tire cover can cause the bike rack to shift and you run the risk of damage. In summary, if you want to carry the bikes with the rear spare tire you'll need to remove the cover. The other options entail installing a hitch or roof rack but these are much more expensive.
