All my friends who use a kickstand tell me that they have never had their bike fall over when on the kickstand. The funny thing is that I have seen nearly every one of them have their bike blow over. I find it no big hassle to lean the bike against something or failing that lay it on it's side. I'd much rather do that than carry an extra pound or two of kickstand.

The clickstand has one big advantage over a kick stand... Since it isn't bolted on, it is easier to mail home when you get tired of messing with it and carrying the extra weight Oh and, it is at least lighter than most if not all kickstands. I'd still rather not use one though.

I tend to be always looking for ways to simplify and carry fewer items. Because of that the decision to use a kickstand would go against the grain for me.
