Heavier bikes like your 60-lb electrics are indeed too heavy for most bike racks. But due to their growing popularity more and more bike rack makers are offering carriers with higher weight ratings so that they can be used with e-bikes.

The 2-bike hitch rack of choice for electric bikes is the Thule EasyFold Platform carrier # TH903202. This rack is thoroughly engineered to provide unmatched flexibility. It may be the last bike rack you ever need to buy.

The EasyFold # TH903202 fits both 1-1/4-inch and 2-inch hitches, handles heavy bikes up to 65-lbs, includes a clamping system that works with all frame types, and it even has a built-in loading ramp so you never have to lift those heavy bikes. Oh, and it also features a handy foot-operated tilt mechanism and built-in wheels to make it easy to move around. These are shown in the linked photo.

True to its name is folds easily to a compact size. All in all, an exceptional bike carrier designed to be future-proof.
