Recommended Hitch Mounted Bike Rack for Two E-Bikes
Question:
thanks. I did fail to mention that the racks would have to be certified for an RV. I do know this sometimes makes a difference. Also the bikes would be E Joe Epik folding bikes. So also a possibility of a cargo type rack....which may be a bit more stable on the back of an RV.

For your two e-bikes, we have two bike racks I recommend.
The Thule EasyFold XT Bike Platform Rack # TH903202, lets you carry 2 e-bikes or other heavy bikes. The padded clamps on adjustable arms hold the bikes on the rack. A foot pedal allows the rack to tilt back with bikes loaded for cargo area access. It folds up for easy storage and includes all the locks to secure the rack to your receiver and your bikes to the rack. This rack can carry two bikes weighing 65 lbs each.
The Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE, # HLY84FR, allows you to carry 2 electric bikes. This rack has an easy to use clamping system with padded hooks. It has adjustable wheel mounts and has hitch and cable locks. It also has a tilt away design for access to cargo areas and folds up when not in use. It has a 80 lbs per bike capacity.
We don't have any swing away options for e-bikes, and either rack will work with a stability hitch, but neither have dual shanks if that was what you were asking.
