I'm looking at having a tow bar fitted to our MH also having a Thule tow bar mounted bike Carrier,I'm just concerned that with the spare wheel being on the back of the MH the bikes will hit or rub againstthe wheel cover. Has anyone had one fitted and found it to be OK?Thanks

No I don’t have one fitted. Need to be careful with your weight though?

We had a 2012 Scout (probably same moulding as yours)?
Had a towbar fitted by Watling and then an Atera DL3 carrier on top. The handle bars on the inside MTB just came over the top of the moulding but I put half a tennis ball over the end of the bars in case it touched the rear panel going over a bump

we are still learning
` On Our 634 (2017/18) we had a witter bar fit . We did have the spare wheel on the back and a bike carrier albeit...it was more for the dog baskets when on site than bikes! The witter one I believe they fit now as an option? Not sure but it was discreet and you could remove the hook if needed?

We've just bought a 2018 Apache 634. Came with a tow Bar- I think Witter and we were lucky to buy a used (once) Witter bike rack on Preloved. Fits over the spare wheel easily.

mine is a 2019 634 and has the nudge bar and bike rack fitted from new and its a perfect setup
although a little expensive
