Since your Madsen e-Bike is a lot larger than a standard bike you're going to have to use a motorcycle/dirt bike carrier, and for that I recommend the Ultra-Fab:

- Ultra-Fab Dirt Bike Carrier for 2" Hitches # UF48-979033

This can accommodate larger wheelbases than a standard bike rack plus it has a weight capacity of 500 lbs so you don't have to worry about exceeding the limits of the rack itself.
