bowellsyboy Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Hi, does anyone know if you can get a bike on the back of a honda crv with the spare wheel on the back door? Will it fit with the spare wheel off or does the frame that holds the wheel still get in the way? It's an 05 crv if it helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ross brown Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 (edited) I put a Dave Cooper rack on my 2005 crv. DC's 4WD rack turns the bike wheel out so that it clears the external spare wheel of the CRV. This works fine but I chose to remove the spare wheel cover everytime i carried the bike to prevent paint damage to the cover. With the cover removed you can then loop an extra tie-down through the wheel hub to hold the bike tighter up high at steering head level. Only one issue, my towbar had a sticker stating 50kg vertical weight limit. Honda Accord had 75kg limit. Go figure.
