I have one its great. You can put the bike on the trailer by yourself. Very well made. Recommend 100%.
I have (3) Pit Bull Trailer restraints in my enclosed trailer, take a look at my thread for the pics. It's WELL worth the money and in my opinion the best restraint system.

I have a Kendon dual fold up. Have you fitted a Pitbull to it? If so can you post pics?

Pit Bull! No stress on your suspension and no more unwelcome surprises when you open the trailer door after a great day at the track!

I'll x100 the trs system. I have 2 in my trailer.. easy to load and unload.. no surprises.. always secure. And as.lomg as your rear wheel is attached to the bike.. even in a nasty wreck you can still trailer it home

I have a new-to-me 2008 Kendon trailer as of last month and I was considering the Pit Bull system until I saw the underside of the trailer. Any pics of how you made this work? Curious; it looks like one would have to mount a plate to the frame under the trailer's aluminum deck.
I still use tracks on edges of the floor to clip loops into. That way I still strap the forks down a little even with these stands. It's amazing how much leverage a bike has on the floor on a bumpy road thanks to these mounts.
And going through the trailers frame, instead of just wood, is fine and all, but it can bend as well. Been there done that. The straps help a lot as they have more leverage on the bike.
It's nice to drive with confidence. And a secure bike is useless if your other cargo is sliding about.

I've used the pitiful restraints for all my bikes on a couple cross country trips before. No issues including some very steep terrain in the rockies. I have also accidentally jumped a curb with the trailer and the bikes on pitbull mounts....no issues again. The worst that's ever happened is the front wheel went from facing straight to turned. LOL

Restraints? I like to use these. Less damage to the finish

Sold my Kendon last year.
I fabbed a rock-solid mount system for the PitBull restraints.
Worked perfectly.
The steel was either 1/4 or 3/8, I don't recall.
All hardware was dipped galvanzied.
That's about all I remember.
Rock-solid.
Good luck!
