Expert Reply:
I do have an option for you but the highest rated bike rack we offer for a 1-1/4" trailer hitch is 66 lbs, with the Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes part # Y96FR. That said, you should be able to remove the battery from the bike and place it in the hatch to get down or close to this capacity but it's really your only option for this hitch size. The OnRamp is a great option nonetheless, it has locks for security and ramps for easy loading.
