Once unlocked lets say, the ride stays in the chock. Walk around and just roll her right on out with no hassels what so ever. A breeze. The quirck right now is getting the lever to release with less effort. It is still fairly new, I am new to it, etc. So maybe things get easier.

Hoe, it is a cool and usefull toy. Since I am a rider coming in from the track or whatever, is nice to roll right into the chock and get off. No need for having your crew help out. (I do not have a crew)

Good question but there are a few variables to that question. Does the concrete fall out from under the ride? hahaha It really does seem pretty stable, I can practice my corner turn ins while the bike is in the stand.

Kinda spendy sro, got it from this link. Used to be a site sponsor or maybe still is, not sure. http://www.wheeldock.com/ Got it for a better deal because at the time there was some serious interest in the product from the forum.

Update: I like my first one so well that I have another one on its way. woot! It is a nice feeling knowing that both of my rides will be safe in the trailer.

+ 1 Drag if your going to trailer your bike it sounds like a must have. That would suck to find your toy on it's side when you opened the door.
