The Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202 can be used with a ramp and has a weight capacity of 65 lbs per bike. That's perfect for your two electric bikes.

Another popular option is the Yakima OnRamp for 2" Hitches # Y36FR or # Y96FR for 1-1/4" Hitches. The OnRamp has an integrated ramp that can be stored with the bike rack. It also has a weight capacity of 66lbs per bike.

When carrying around your electric bikes, please remove the battery and carry them inside your vehicle. The road stress on a bike rack can affect your battery's life. Plus having the battery off makes the bikes lighter and easier to transport.

To me it makes the most sense to put a Bike Rack #HLY64FR on the flat towed vehicle rather than above the tow bars. Especially on heavy e-bikes as they are difficult to lift that high onto the rack, but also as it only makes sense to have the rack on…
