No spare - ooer!

[jesgas]

Hello, first off thank you for accepting me into your fold! I suddenly feel very safe in such experienced and illustrious company. I have a 2023 Kepler one on T6.1 - 2litre diesel. I love it all except for not having a spare wheel. I don’t trust the easy option of repair solution and mini compressor to get me off the autoroute safely. I would like a spare but…..

1 - no underfloor carrier possible.

2 - Rear door is one piece with large glass window so no chance of fitting an exterior carrier like a ‘monsta’ or similar.

3 - interior storage space is a no go as well. SO…..

Is there a low speed reduced size spare available and if so, could it be safely mounted on a Fiamma bike rack? Has anyone info on any other solution or ideas? Tyre size is 205/65R16C - 107/105T.

I humbly beg your indulgences. Jesgas.

Have you got something that's part of the conversion where the spare wheel carrier should be?

Afraid so, tanks and pipes etc.

There is a very expensive accessory that allows you to fit a wheel to a stands rack

Other water tanks are available that leave the spare wheel storage free.

There is this recent option that @T6ChrisO posted they'd got?

What Have You Bought Today?

Thanks, that’s really helpful. I think it would be worth trying to pick up a set of those. Drones direct have these on clearance at £7.99 for 8 instead of £28.00. Might be worth a look.

That’s a slightly cheaper option (about £1500!)

Not received the above yet but I know others have been very happy with the quality

Guys, sorry to hijack this post but I have a missing carrier on my 2019 T6. When I looked under I can see a slightly mangled part that looks like it would accept the hinge pin, but what connects that to the carrier? If anyone can point me towards what I need, that would be much appreciated.
