Expert Reply:
I recommend looking into the Saris Freedom 2 Bike Platform Rack # SA4412B-FB. This is a 2 bike carrier which is specifically designed to transport electric fat bikes; it can also hold regular bikes without an issue. It can hold up to 5" wide tires which should be more than enough for any fat bike. The weight capacity is 60lbs per bike, so you will want to remove the battery from your electric bike when transporting to reduce the weight. This fits 1-1/4" and 2" hitch receivers.
If you do not want to remove the battery from your bike when transporting, you could go with Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # Y36FR which has a weight capacity of 66lbs per bike. This is a 2 bike carrier that can hold electric bikes with tires up to 3-1/4" wide. For wider tires use FatStraps # Y23FR which can handle up to 4.5" wide tires. This fits 2" hitch receivers.
I have attached demonstration videos for these products. If you do not happen to have a trailer hitch receiver on the back of your vehicle then feel free to provide your vehicle's information and I'd be more than happy to find one for you.
