We haul 2 bikes, although they are not "e-bikes", we turn the handlebars on the one closest to the camper. The bike rack is a 4-bike hauler from the local sporting goods store. It fits snug into the receiver, but I also put a bolt thru it, instead of a pin, and tighten it tight. I have found that if I keep it tight in the receiver, and minimize the movement, I have no problems. So far, they have crossed from the Atlantic to the Rockies twice with no issues whatsoever.
I believe the hitches are rated to 300# tongue weight, so the 2 bikes plus the bike rack are below that. If you can eliminate the extension by turning the handlebars, I would highly recommend it. Good luck!
