Demo starts @3:40 This looks promising, but @4:03 couldn’t you have hooked much further up over the tire by lowering the opposite lever in your left hand, therefore raising the other side, much higher? And I feel like if this system came with a bit of a saddle for the wheel to first ride up and over, then sit in at the bottom, about 7 o’clock on the Tire, that would also hold the tire much better?
Hey dude, I first would like to apologize for the delayed response, I have been pretty busy with work and home projects as of late. I would like to thank you for viewing the full video and for the comment. I would like to start off and say that this is a great product and works exactly as it was demoed in the video and this will insure the front tire of the bike is secured into the floor. The problem with lowering the lever in my left hand would be that you lose the clamping portion of the wheel chock. The two problems I had with this product was the fact that it was claimed to have been a strapless system, which it was far from because the back end of the bike was able to bounce around in the trailer at will. The other thing and the main thing I didn't like about the product was the fact that it was a stationary item in the trailer and was cumbersome to remove from the trailer if I had to get lumber or a big item for a home project.. I will be doing a video on the current wheel chock that I installed in my trailer this past summer of 2024 and I am much happier with my current set up. The wheel chock I decided to go with is the Pingel wheel chock, mainly due to it being an easy to remove wheel chock. You can check them out at www.PINGELONLINE.com. I hope this helps answer your question. I wish you all the best in your future purchases for your moto needs and hope you go with the wheel chock that works and is best for you. Thanks again, Dino
OK, first I have used this type of chock for years, thousands of miles. Never an issue. And your not using it right, the wheel hold down goes all the way past the apex of tire. You just set it on top. Makes no sense at all. Try it again and adjust it to fit as designed. I have seen trailer flip off the tongue and they held, and of course holding down rear of bike is only common sense with any chock.
@@plnkylagarza8620 Thanks for the update. This product isn’t a bad product at all, I’ll start with that. The main reason I got rid of this system was that it is not quickly removable from the trailer such as the current system that I switched to. Yes I will admit that I used it wrong on my first trip with it, after that I didn’t have any issues using it how I did in the video. I also had looked up trailer setups with this item and never seen them strap the backend of the bike and made a human error by assuming it was strapless, as we all do at times. All in all, I am much happier with my current setup mainly because I can remove it quickly and use the trailer for other items such as home repairs.
