The thule easyfold 2 bike platform rack th903202 is designed to easily carry heavy electric bikes like yours. And it only gets worse trying to get your bike on or off the roof rack if you have injured yourself during the ride. I attached a demo video for this rack for you to check out as well. This is what will keep your bike stable.

It fits to the roof lowers down to the side where you attach the bike and then it lifts back into place.
