Does anybody know what the maximum weight is that can be loaded onto the spare wheel? I'm thinking of buying 2 E-bikes which would weigh about 60kg (including the spare wheel mounted bike carrier) and would like to confirm if this is possible.

Hi Mark
Thanks for your advice, you've raised some good points I would never have thought of. I already have the carrier which I previously used for standard mountain bikes, just wondering if I could re-use it for electric mountain bikes. If I get e-bikes they will likely be hard tail so I'm guessing my existing carrier would be ok for just one bike. Can you get tow bar mounted racks that will take into consideration clearance for the spare wheel and still take 2 bikes?
