I have the Wheel Grabber in my trailer. I think it's great! You drive up and it rocks over pushing the tire into the bracket. It has a strap system that holds the tire down on the chock. I strap the rear of my bikes down to the deck. Just to stop any tail wag in rough conditions. I just took one of my bikes over 350 miles with no problems. I think most of the guys I've talked with aroud here think it's one of the best. No the front forks are not compressed. Mine is the removable one. You end up with a flat plate bolted to the floor about 5/16" high. It seems to feel better with the larger tires.
I put the e-track in my trailer and was going to use the removable chock to go with it. After doing some serious measuring I put one section of e-track just in front of the front wheel and the other just behind the rear wheel so the front straps are pulling slightly forward and the rear straps are pulling slightly rearward. When the bike is tied down there is no way it can move. For me this works very well without the wheel chock. The e-track is low enough you don't even realize it is there when the bike is out. Just my 2 cents.
I use Condor too. They are the best as far as I'm concerned. I have two permanent mounting locations and I probably will buy the e-track mount so when I haul just one bikeI can center it in the trailer. Also use Powertye straps. They are awesome.
Wheeldock for me. I really like it. It bolts to the floor with a nut on the underneath side of the floor. Remove two bolts and the floor is clear. Also, you don't have to roll the bike over the chock. Open the hydraulic closer and it is flat to roll the bike off.
I am sure these are not the best but worth mentioning is Harbor Freight for $35.00. It is all according what you are going to do with it.
I use Recessed Motorcycle Wheel Chocks on my trailer. They are cut into the floor. When closed they are flush. I made a photo for you. The reason I like them is because they are always there but out of the way.
Condor. You can also buy the trailer kit so the chock can be removed quickly. You can also use this freestanding in your driveway or garage. I love mine.

Love the wheeldock for ease putting the bike in & taking it out. The front end does not need to be compressed with the wheeldock either.
