Question Bike racks for an Ebike on an NA

Bike rack options for a 72lb Ebike on my NA.

I am thinking this but I am not sure if it has specific weight limitations?

I imagine it would be fine but I am curious what everyone else is using.

I wouldn't do anything short of a hitch mount for e-bikes. I had one like the linked rack many years ago and it was **** for a 30lb bike... Figure the value of the sheet metal/paint, and the value of the bike and it's worth paying for a durable and sturdy rack and mount.

I ended up with a Kuat rack for our Jeep, but it's for 2 E-bikes and RV rated. It wasn't cheap, but it works.

Sounds good! Are hitch mounts pretty easy to do? I have had the bumper off and I am just unclear on where it would hook up to. Idk, I'll look into it. Thanks!

My hidden hitch bolts to where the rear tow hooks were. Pretty simple.
