Yes, the Yakima bike rack with a ramp you mentioned, the OnRamp, will indeed work with your ebike with a step-thru frame. The rack uses wheel straps and adjustable clamps to grasp bikes by their seat post or along the frame, which is why it is 100 percent compatible with a step-thru bike. The OnRamp is available for either a 1-1/4" or 2" hitch:

- 2" Hitch: Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # Y36FR

- 1-1/4" Hitch: Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # Y96FR

Something to keep in mind is the OnRamp has a 66 lb per-bike weight capacity and is compatible with tires up to 3-1/4" wide.
