They
do make
lightweight load binders....
Northern Tool.
Have you ever actually held one of those?
Would you trust your EG with that?
The problem with binders is the lack of give. Even after you readjust your nylon straps the first time there is still some give.
But to each their own. Some guys I know put a block under the frame and then cinch down tight on to the block. Watching a trailer bounce down the road would stop me from doing that.
Just my preference, and it has worked well for me, and I have quite a bit tied up in my bike to be careful with it. A heavy weight bike needs to be properly secured if you don't want a surprise when you lower the tailgate.
Quality nylon ratchet straps, quality wheel chocks (for easy on - off the bike when loading) and I let the suspension of the bike carry the load. Meaning I compress the suspension maybe 20-30%
And loose or not properly secured objects in the trailer need to be in check - but that is another story I have.
