The bipod i got doesnt really keep it stable, tho i got a welder friend to widen its feet so it is better. I'm keeping my eye out for other options tho. That sidestand looks interesting because with enough width and lean, hypothetically it should be fairly stable to load up, what's your opinion.
Thanks! I think they finally got most of the bugs worked out with the V3. I get lots of questions, and I think one of the local bike shops is looking at the Mundo as one of the possible cargo bikes for them to stock.
The sidestand is the stock one, yes. It mostly works well, but the bike still tips over fairly easily with an unbalanced load. It can also be a little tough to catch with your foot to extend it, depending on the circumstances. I'm waiting for the new Stand Alone revision to come out this Spring. I haven't looked very hard, but it's about the only vertical stand I've seen that doesn't look less stable than the current side stand.
