To me the Cerka or the PA Blue look like a better design then the red RD one.
Looking for wheel chock suggestions.

Awesome, thanks for that. Ordered the stand as well as a chain breaker that was a great price.
Coyo, try these guys, they are in milton. http://www.cerka.ca/comersus7f/store/comersus_viewItem.asp?idProduct=45
I saw that one too but is it worth $45 more than the one at Royal Distributing (they're on sale for $69.88 and I can get it to my door for $97.04 all in)?
Royal Distributing ($69.88)
Cerka ($114)

To me the design of the RD one is not as good. I don't like how the front piece is stopped from rocking forward and backward. It may not be an issue, but when i think if the forces involved (esp in transportation) I would rather have the welds and the flat mating surface then the design of the red one.
I bought the wheel chock from RD today, and overall id say id rather have my PA chock holding up my bike than the RD one.
Kinda wishing they had one on display before i purchased it, cuz i would of never bought it.
For those on the fence, if you can find them stick with the PA one if your looking for a fairly inexpensive chock.

What didnt you like about the RD one?
The overall quality of it, and i think (IMHO) its too flimsy .. i wouldnt trust it to hold up just a bike on its own.
Than again i use all of my chocks in my trailer, free floating.
Both PA chocks is what ive used in the past. The blue one i use all the time..

I got my chock from RD yesterday and I just assembled it in my office.
It's not bad. I'm not super impressed by it but it's strictly going to be used to park the bike in the garage so it should e ok for what I need it for.
I've handled the Baxley ones at this past motorcycle show and they are far superior than this thing is hands down.
I would have grabbed one there but they were asking around the $250 range so I passed on it.
Edit: Called their customer service number to see what they'd do for me cause I received my chock scratched up and they offered me a full refund less the shipping cost. Not sure I wanna keep it but I'll be out around 30-40 bux in shipping costs :/

Remember kids! Quality, Made in USA stuff always costs!
.
I would recommend that blue PA one (or the one from Cerka based on the look and design) every day of the week.
Get the item number and call around (or get them to), might be one laying around in one of the stores.
Here is another option, made by Gorilla.
Maybe somebody could comment on the quality? It doesn't look any worse than the PA ones and the price is right!

Does not look as good, the bottom part does not hinge grab the tire sideways, and once again I do not think the bolts holding the forward upright are as good as the PA design.
And there's no clip to hold the tire holder in place.
