In order to carry a women's bike with a step through frame on the Yakima RidgeBack Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting # Y02457 you'll need to use a bike frame adapter bar like the Yakima Tube Top Bake Adapter # Y02531. This bar attaches to the handlebar stem and the seat post to provide the cross bar needed to carry the bike level, and is a common accessory used with bike racks to carry women's and children's bikes.

I believe I have a solution for you, but I think you may need to remeasure your cutout and/or compare the measurements of your current latch with one of ours. Since latches tend to be fairly universal in size when it comes to the RV world the Global…
