I am looking for a wheelchair carrier for my rigid wheelchair for the back of my Spyder ST. I've emailed the guy with the rackit website but haven't heard back. Does anyone else know someone who I can contact to purchase one from or who can send me dimensions or how to?

Being that you are in Missouri, I'd try to call Pitbull Powersports and Lamonster Garage. If neither one of those places has anyone who knows, I don't know who does.

Some Spyderlovers to try:

SethO and Kawakii are both paraplegic and have carriers for their wheel chairs -- might be able to recommend someone reputable.

Doc Humphreys at Roadster Renovations just built a carrier for an RT -- he might have a different design for other models. Doc and Roadster Renovations are listed as a sponsor on the home page.

All the best ... Ann

If you have some designs we could get together, after I get back from Tennessee rally we are leaving in the morning.

Even if you don't want to use a hitch mount system, you could easily modify how it attaches to your bike. Easier than building one from scratch

If you go to the Forum Page and lick on Enabled Spyder lovers go to page 1 and look for the post from Eddy Hutchens he had a nice mount made for his F3 but decided that the Spyder was not for him the post was put up awhile
ago so I do not know if he still has it. I used to live In Troy Mo. and would go to Wright City quite often and While I was a Lineman we would do a lot of work in Hannibal Mo, It is good to know that there are a few Spyder riders
around my old home town. Good Luck With Whatever You Decide and
HAPPY RIDING .
Are you mounting a Folder or Ridged Frame ?

I looked at your post again and I see that you have a ST on the Enabled Spyder lovers Forum there is a post from Mark Perry and he has a real slick wheelchair mount for a folder
he also has some great photos and it will very inexpensive and easily removable when you trade up or sell.

I have a mount I had built for my Spyder F3. Will that work on yours? I sold my bike. The frame goes on left side and wheels on right side. It is a very nice set up. I have a post with pictures on here from a ways back.
