There is one option for a bike rack that is capable of hauling your RadRunner electric bikes, though if they do weigh 90 lbs with the batteries on, you will need to remove the batteries because the largest weight capacity for any bike rack is 80 lbs. The rack that will work with your RadRunner bikes and has an 80 lb capacity is the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # HLY84FR.

This rack is extremely durable and strong with its steel construction, and is also simple to install compared to most bike racks because it doesn't require any tools to install, you just need to turn the handle on its anti-rattle pin and you're set. The Sport Rider also secures the investments you made in your RadRunner as well as the rack with its integrated hitch and frame locks, which lock the bike rack to your vehicle and bikes to your rack, respectively.

The only other thing to keep in mind is that RadRunners with a step-through frame will require an adapter bar to give the rack's frame hooks a mounting point. So for that you will need the Hollywood Racks Bike Frame Adapter Bar # HRBA-PRO.

I have added a link below to a video review for you to check out as well of the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # HLY84FR.
