I too had a Condor wheel chock. It was a chore getting the bike out on the RK or the Sporty, so I sold the Condor and got the WheelDock. It's a breeze getting into and out of now. The Condor is a quality chock and the guy I sold it to is happy with it, but it wasn't for me.
I bought a J&S jack a few months later and the RK sits on it while in the garage and the Sporty is on the WheelDock. I find it's much easier to turn the RK around when I pull in and move it around in the garage while on the jack.

Im surprised no one has mentioned Baxley.
Having tried them all over the years I found the Baxleys to be the best - solid and not as hard to get the bike out of as the condor.
Many, many trips with no issues.....

Tried something new with no wheel chock and 6 straps. Been hauling my bike from Central WI to FL since I think 2009 and never an issue til this year. Straps came loose just enough to lay the bike on its side and had it bouncing off the crash bar, which had somehow wrecked my front fender, and my forward control was digging into the floor. Oh and it was bouncing off the inside of the back door. At least the right muffler kept the lower corner of the saddlebag off the door far enough to keep it from wearing a hole completely through the bag. And it broke my rear fender extention but not the Custom Dynamics tri bar light. All cosmetic stuff but it still makes you sick to see your children's inheritance laying on its side. This all happened in the first 100 miles of a 1500 mile one way trip.
Ouch!!! Theres a good reason to use a wheel chock. I have hauled mine without one but unless it's a getting picked up because Im broke down situation, I will be using my new Condor.

The one thing about the Condor as most know, that bitch has a DEATH GRIP on your front wheel and the bike is going no where at all. Personally, I am good with it but not for everyone.

Power Tye straps, made in USA, and they have a safety latch on the S Hook so that the hook wont come off, even if the strap were to loosen (or not installed snug enough).

I've had a Condor Pit Stop for about 10 years. Best piece of gear I've bought for the bikes by far. I have it snugged up against my garage wall and drilled two holes into the concrete floor then dropped in two large bolts into the Condors pre drilled holes. The bolts keep the Condor in place when I rock the bike backwards to go for a ride.

I see it's been a while since this was posted, but I’m curious—how’s everyone’s experience been with their Condor chocks over time? Have they held up well with frequent use? I'm considering picking one up and wondering if they stay sturdy after a lot of loading and unloading. Also, has anyone tried mounting theirs on a trailer permanently, or do you prefer keeping it removable?
