Yes it will! Not only is the Swagman Current # S64678 perfectly constructed to withstand the extra torque/force when mounted on your motorhome, it also is great for your 60 and 50-pound e-bikes. The Current is compatible with wheelbases up to 50" and bike diameters between 20-29" around. In order to accommodate the step-thru frame bike on the ratcheting hooks, you need the bike frame adapter bar # 64005. With the adapter, you receive the straight, horizontal plane required to mount your bike. I went ahead and attached a video that shows how the adapter works.

If you already have a hitch, it is important to measure your hitch pinhole to the outside face of your bumper to make sure you don't have any bumper clearance issues with the Current. As long as that length does not exceed 5-3/4", you are good to go.

If you need a hitch option for your motorhome, I recommend the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch # 13703. This hitch has adjustable brackets that can accommodate frames between 22-72" wide. I recommend measuring your frame from left to right to make sure it fits within these parameters.
