Bicycle Carrier on spare wheel

[Arnaud]

I attached a Lolo Racks single bike carrier to my ladder to carry my mountain bike.

Hello Terdrocket,
How do you fix your LOLO Rack on your ladder? I don't find a way to fix it.

I have this one from Yakima. Works well on the defender and can also be fitted on the GrendIer.View attachment 7844075

Fabbri, in Italy, makes one called the Gringo Bicci. You can get conversion kits so it can carry 4 pairs of skis, 2 snowboards (or 1 snowboard and 2 pairs of skis), or 2 bikes. For the stock Grenadier wheels, you will need the 300mm extension cables, as well. It’s quite light and mounts in about 1 minute, once you do the initial setup, which is very easy. I don’t use it for my mountain bike (I use a Thule hitch mounted rack with an extender bar) - just skis, but looks like an interesting option. One thing to note - I believe the Fabbri touches the frame - my bikes are carbon frame, so I prefer no-touch options. The site says it’s carbon frame compatible, so I think the part that touches has protection for the frame. If you want a spare-mounted rack, however, this might be your best bet.

I’ve also attached a picture of mine, which is just configured for skis.

I also tried to install the Yakima and did not manage to do so. Yesterday I installed a French model, which seems to work fine: https://www.mottez.com/de/produits/porte-velo-4x4-sur-roue-de-secours/

Can upload pictures later.

Things to consider:
- not as lean as the Yakima (no folding of the upper part)
- assembly takes a while
- creates issues with the parking sensor (there might be a fix for that)
