For the heavier bikes you have (one with a fender) the best solution will be a Hollywood Rack E-Bike Rack part # HLY84FR which has an 80 lb per bike capacity plus it grabs the bike frame instead of the wheel which means it will work well with your fenders.

We have a 2016 grand design imagine travel trailer. We have two ebikes their wait are 50lbs each . Really like the racks that fit on the front of a trailer where the hitch is located . Any options? Thanks

All of the front tongue-mounted options we have available are limited to 35-40 pound bikes. For heavier e-bikes you really need to go with a traditional hitch-mounted carrier at the rear of the Grand Design. The Swagman Escapee # S39SR is a really great option that can support two bikes of up to 60 pounds each.
