wheel choks, which are best?
The pingel ones in mytrailer are POS , too wide.
Has anyone uset the baxley or condor or other type of locking wheel chok?
Good ? Bad? worth it?
I want to buy 2 , to be used in the trailer, garage floor, and on my table lift.
Do they have quick connect fastening systems I can leave on the table, and in the trailer?
I live in Canada, where logistically we are challenged, so i don't get to see this stuff for myself andf make a decision...

Hey dubious, I have the Baxley Chocks. They are hands down the best invention for loading, unloading or working on your bike EVER!!! Even for putting you bike up on the rear stand, (like a pitbull or the one in your picture ) it just works perfect. Just roll or ride your bike up into the chock.............and the bike is nice and stable. THEN whip your stand under the back........no more balancing act.......... Put it up on your lift and ride right into it and get off.........no more clamping the front tire. When you put it in your trailer just sit it in there, ride up into it and gently tie the bike forward with some Ankra's. No more mashing the front suspension..............

I have the condor's...Awesome...My other sponsor has the baxley's and they are a little more sturdier...
The condor can be mounted to the floor of a trailer or rail trailer...

I've got the Condor too and really like it. Just remember if you want the option of quick removal it's like $20 extra but well worth it.
