For your application you can use the following:
Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE 2 Electric Bike Rack - # HLY74FR
Long Wheelbase Kit - # HRLWBK-2Y
Fork Mount Adapter - # HR915 (need 2 of these)
Slide Frame Hook - # HRSPRFHC-SW (when using the ElliptiGO)
"Z" Frame Hook - # HRSPRFHC-RW (when using the ElliptiGO)
This gives you a bike rack that has an 80 lb per-bike weight rating for your E-Bikes and then by using the long wheelbase kit with the fork mount adapter and hooks you essentially get the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider Bike Rack for 2 ElliptiGO Bikes # HR1000Z-R915 with the higher weight rating.
You can leave the long wheelbase kit installed and then all you need to do is add the hooks and fork mount adapter when using your ElliptiGO bikes and then remove them and replace the initial hooks when using your E-Bikes.
