When it comes to getting a bike rack for your trailer hitch you either have a 1-1/4 inch hitch, a 2 inch hitch or a 2-1/2 inch hitch, there is no such thing as a 1-1/2 inch hitch.

The Swagman Current Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # S64678. This rack can hold up to 2 electric bikes and can carry up to 60 pounds per bicycle. It can fit a electric bike with a maximum width of 5.0 inches. You will have to take off the battery to be able to get the correct carrying weight.
