Car bike rack

Looking for a suggestion for a 2 bike bike rack.

Ideally on the back rather than the roof.
The bike is 20kg.

Do these offer any security? I don't want someone stealing my bike at traffic lights (I've seen it happen on vids)

Sarin Bones. Not cheap, but well built and very adaptable. I have the three bike version, and it held three bikes securely for our staycation.

This is the very one I was looking at

Most of them have several straps that would make it difficult to get away with it easily but no proper theft prevention.

Get a proper lock to tie round the frame too.

That's a good point. If the lock was around the frame it would be difficult to make away with.

I don't think someone is going to be able to quickly run off with a 20kg bike!!!

I had a roof rack so can't really help with tail racks. But I'm sure security won't really be an issue.

Its an ebike so the motor and battery add some serious chub
