The Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # HLY74FR is the best bike rack for you. This carrier has a very impressive weight capacity of 80lbs per bike which will be enough to accommodate your Rad Runner Plus which weighs about 75lbs according to my research. It can also hold bike tires that are up to 5" wide, which will be plenty for your bike. You will need to use an adapter bar like # UB01 for your bike since it has an oddly-shaped step thru frame design.

This carrier has a few really neat features that make it stand out among other bike racks. It can be folded down when not in use which will allow the trunk or rear cargo doors to be opened on your vehicle. It can also tilt back when bikes are still loaded in order to gain access to the trunk on most vehicles. Another nice thing about the Sport Rider SE is that it has integrated locks to secure the bikes and the carrier to the vehicle's hitch receiver.

I attached a helpful demonstration video for you to check out.
