Expert Reply:
We have a special rack that is specifically designed for heavy electric bikes. I recommend the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider for electric bikes # HLY84FR. This rack has a capacity of 80 pounds per bike.
Since you have a step thru frame you may need to use an adapter bar like part # UB01 so the hook can secure your bike.
