Default Wheel Chock for Trailering

I am looking to outfit my new trailer with some wheel chocks. What is the best one to use? The one I have looked at most is the Condor. Also I need something that is going to work with a 26" front wheel and a wrap fender.

I just used the harbor freight chock from haul-master. Put two in the enclosed trailer for side by side, and have one mounted to the ground in my garage. All work very well, and you cant beat the $40 price tag. I cannot speak about the fitment for a 26" or wrap fender...

Harbor freight chock from haul-master gets my vote also I have three of them, two in my trailer and one on my lift table and they work great.

I have a wood deck utility trailer to trailer two bikes. I got two Pingel chocks off ebay with removeable hardware - installs in about two minutes, and when I remove the chocks nothing is left on the deck except the countersunk hardware.

I used the movable Pringels also with lay flat D-rings. Allows me to haul one or two bikes. I can haul two bikes off set to balance the load or one bike centered over the axle. Josh, don't bother justifying using a trailer. There is always a group of fashion queens to comment on proper riding attire and no trailer frogs to croak about I carry it on my back before I'll trailer my bike for any reason around here.

I need to find a chock that will fit my narrow 21 inch wheel on my WG better

I have the black HF chock but the tire fits too loose and the bike leans more than I like
