Number two will hold better and you wouldn't have to use straps (I have one and never use straps), but it is more bulky than the first one.

I have #1

It has been holding my SG up on the lift for over a month now, with no straps or anything.

I used a coupon for mine, and got it for $19.
Well worth the money...

Both are good chocks for the money, but the second one, you can put it in and out of a trailer with quick release pins. Not sure if you can do that with the first one or not.

If you're any good at welding you can make your own Bike Shoe, like this:

They work perfectly and are not hard at all to build.
