Wheel Chocks, anyone use these
« on: February 09, 2006, 08:30:12 PM »
I was looking through Motor Cyclist today and came accross these.  I'm going to order a set and these seem pretty sturdy and compared to others on the market alot cheaper..

They are decent. But I have used and like the more highly engineered style like the La Chock.

My Dad has one of these and I really like it. With these you can get right off your bike and secure it in place with tie downs. With the other style, you'll find that you'll really still want a friend with you to help secure the bike.

BUT - The one you list is MUCH more affordable. My Dad won his in a raffle.

Something like this would save a lot of space in my garage.

Anyone know if you can get similar in the UK?
