If a wheel chock isn't good enough for your machine and you want a stronger, tighter hold on the front wheel, Pingel's Cycle Jaws are what you need. Rather than use the pressure of straps (although you should also use the pressure of straps), these jaws tighten around your tire, holding it upright and in position.
Don't worry about damage to your bike. Pingel designed the adjustable tire locator on their Cycle Jaws to hold firmly without harming your rotors or rims. This is a heavy-duty device constructed of thick-wall yellow zinc-plated steel. Comparatively, a wheel chock is weak tea.
Used to transport your bike to and fro, Cycle Jaws secure with four mounting bolts into four mounding plates. It's no hard task to move the Jaws around. When you are not transporting your bike, you can use Cycle Jaws in your garage to hold your bike straight for oil changes or other maintenance.
If you have a habit of riding solo, you'll be pleased to hear that Cycle Jaws were made for single person operation. Setting your bike, or moving the device, won't require the enlistment of friends.
The cost is on the high end, but this is a refined, durable device. I would say it's worth the money if you transport your bike frequently on a trailer. Otherwise you're probably good with a standard chock.
