I wouldn't want the whole weight of the bike rocking side to side just supported by the chocked front wheel like that. Shouldn't you use some tie downs from the bars too?
The whole weight of the bike does not rock the bike side to side at all. When the two straps are on the swing arm (as I stated they wer not shown), it's solid and does not move at all. No straps needed on the bars at all and suspension is not compressed in anyway and bike just floats on the trailer. Trust me, it's solid. I would not be towing it all over the place if it wasn't.

I was worried about you buckling or fracturing the front wheel. We use chocks on some of our trailers but we always strap the bike from high up too, like the bars, which stops it swaying. If you are happy though then all is well.

It does not sway at all with rear straps on it. Stable as hell.
