I am looking at getting a trailer and pondering the tie down system. Have any of you used the Lock N Load system? The video looks like this works pretty well.

these work well just be cautious of the rear flip up for the front tire that it doesn't hit the bottom of your fender.
Looks like a nice system to me.
I've used Condor chocks (similar) to these chocks for aprox 10yrs. Don't trailer much but they have worked perfectly. I've never used the self tightening straps, just real good ratchet straps. I also have e trac on my trailer, which gives you many options for tie down points. This Lock n Load like a nice system, depending on price.
Many of us have wheel chocks; however I wonder if there is good reason to also use a pair of the "self-adjusting" ratchet straps they sell. Looks like $74 for a pair. Is the strain caused by compressing the bike shocks when using regular tie down straps enough of a worry to make the self-adjusting straps worthwhile? I suspect the answer may be yes...
I also had the Condor chock for years... the important part here is to keep the bike from going backwards... the only thing original in the video is the straps in the back...the rest is old, implemented by Condor...
