Expert Reply:
For a bike rack that is rated for travel trailers and with a weight rating for heavier ebikes, I suggest the Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes, # Y36FR. From information available to me, it appears the Specialized COMO 4.0 weighs in at about 48 lbs. This has a weight capacity of 66 lbs. per bike but rated at 40 lbs. when used off-road or on an RV. Please verify, but you should be fine with the weight if you remove your battery pack when carrying the ebikes on the bike rack. It is highly recommended that bikes not be transported with battery in place. This is able to accommodate bikes with a tire width of up to 3-1/2" but has the option of adding the FatStraps for Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack, # Y23FR if needed. This bike rack even has an integrated ramp to assist in rolling the bikes in place and then stows on the rack so it's always there and ready for use. The adjustable frame clamps and bike trays fit a variety of bike styles and sizes.
