Recommended Hitch Mount Bike Rack for Carrying 51 lb E-Bikes at the Back of a 5th Wheel Trailer

Question:

I am purchasing 2 Magnum Ebikes this week. They will be living on the back of my Jayco 5th wheel that has a factory Class III hitch installed. They are the same bikes my camping bud has and he uses a Swagman Dispatch rated at 45 pounds. Our bikes will be 51 pounds so he just removes the batteries which I dont want to deal with if possible. I like the idea of this rack being able to carry 60 pounds but I don't want a frame mount, and my Ebike has fenders. Do I have any other options?

I have a great option for you to use instead of the frame mount Swagman Dispatch # S44FR. You could instead use the Lets Go Aero V-Lectric FAT PRO Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # LGA77FR. This is a wheel mount bike rack that will hold 2 bikes up to 75 pounds each and it works with bikes with fenders.
