I have a much better bike rack solution I can give you but the frame clamps of the Saris Freedom part # SA4412B aren't going to work for your Montague Paratrooper and won't work well with the e-bike either. Instead your best option is a rack that uses clamps to grab the top tube like the Thule Easy Fold XT part # TH903202 which was intended for carrying heavier e-bikes with step through frames like what you have. It even comes with a ramp to help make loading and unloading bikes easier as well.
I attached a review video for more info on this rack.
