I have been vigorously researching what kickstand to use that:

1. Doesn't mount on the frame / cause damage.
2. Can handle holding the bike up with loaded weight (bike is 25lbs itself, total load might be 40-50 lbs).
3. Is lightweight.
4. Preferably a kick style that doesn't have to be removed / reattached every time you want to use it.

My rear chain stay does not have the additional 5mm holes for bolting a kickstand directly in, but does have many holes for panniers / fenders etc. Pics below.

My research has lead me to having to compromise by removal / click on every time I want to use it, but would prefer a kick style that mounted on the rear wheel skewer.

What are the pros / cons when it comes down to choosing between the "click stand" brand, and the "upstand" brand:

Also, a pedal kickstand seems interesting and maybe better to have the weight loaded on center of the bike:

My bike w/ leftover rubber residue from using a rear mounted kickstand. Luckily alcohol and cotton wipes got it off after an hour of elbow grease:
