The front chock I’ve been using for years (well, it’s not really a chock)
Ethos Easy Stand Helper R78000 <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m thinking about how to keep it from slipping and make it easy to remove (\u00b4-`).\uff61oO<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

First I installed it like this (‘\u25c7’)\u309e<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This chock (well, it’s not really a chock) is also used with a headlight tester, so I can’t bolt it down.
I need to find a way that’s not a hassle! So I stared intently at the lift while eating lunch.

I don’t want to weld if I can help it, so I’m working through this in a simple direction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There are probably several M8 bosses from the original chock.
*I threw away the original chock a long time ago (; \uff65`\u0434\uff65\u00b4)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used a scrap round bar as a physical stopper so it won’t go the other way.
It should be fine, I think… I’ll keep an eye on this for a bit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This Ethos Easy Stand Helper has a wheel reverse function. <\/a>
You know that common chock problem where the tire digs in and won’t come out?
With this, that never happens.
You could weld a round bar to a cheap chock, but… <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Adding the optional extension bar increases stability even more. <\/a>

I use this chock on my truck too. For hauling, I make it longer to boost stability (‘\u03c9’)\u30ce<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The wheel fits 16\u201318 inch sizes.
*I use it on 19 inch too, but… it’s fine for short periods. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The chock wheel balance has three position adjustments for fine-tuning.
*I mostly use it at maximum… <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You can also secure the bike without the extension bar and lift it with the front stand.
It gets out of the way so nicely\u2014a truly excellent product. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the end, I went with what I had on hand, but I cleared one hurdle~ <\/p>\n\n\n\n
