Recommended Wheel Chocks for Motorcycle Carrier
Question:
I have a motorcycle rack for my motorhome and want to use it for my new e-bikes 90lbs each thinking about getting wheel chocks to make it faster tying them down. what wheel chock would fit a 20x4 tire? The e-bikes are too heavy for most bike carriers and I already have a nice motorcycle rack for two motorcycles. It would take me awhile to tie down my two honda scooters and want to make it faster, easier . Also will most likely get an adjustable bar to keep bikes a fixed distance between them, do you sell those bars? Carrier is MotoGroup, ST3402.

I like the Tow-Rax Removable Wheel Chock, # TWSPWM in black and # TWSPWC in chrome. These can be screwed down to a wood floor of a trailer but also bolted down using the included hardware. These are 8-3/8" wide and from specs available to me online, the MotoGroup, ST3402 carrier has tracks 7-1/2" wide, this option will set slightly over the edge the carriers rails. That does not prevent this being used but I think setting within the rails may make a better fit. You would need to fabricate a plate to the carrier for a mounting point so this option on its own is not ready to use with your carrier, it is actually intended for trailer floor mounting. However, with a little minor additional fabrication this can be made to work.
We do have the bike adapter bar you asking about, I suggest the Swagman Deluxe Bike Frame Adapter Bar, # 64005. While the Swagman Deluxe Bike Frame Adapter Bar, # 64005, is designed to be clamped around the bike's seat post and handlebar's stem post, I do think it may work in the way you are asking since the bar can expand anywhere from 24-3/8" - 33-3/4".

Thanks for the response. I'm waiting for delivery on the E Bike, once I get it, I'll start working on the conversion of the motorcycle carrier. I kinda like the wheel chock with the pivoting bracket, but like you said the chock would be better if it fit in the rails and this chock is even wider. With some modification, I should be able to adjust the chock to fit the 4" wide ebike tire for a snug fit might have to get out my welder, ha. thanks again, you guys rock
