What has your best solution been?

We have 2 ebikes (50# each) and a spare tire that we want to have along on our journeys.

At this point the best idea we have come up with is to use a heavy duty (750# capacity), hitch mounted cargo carrier. We've found some bike wheel supports (along with tie-down straps) that would bolt onto the carrier, but still aren't sure of the best way to add the spare MH tire on the carrier.

We're a bit concerned about stringing on one of those double hitch mounts. Not sure how stable that would all be. Plus, really would like to minimize added length to the rig.

Another thought has been to front mount the tire, but that would take adding a hitch to the already rather low riding front.

What good solutions have you found?
