not fond of kickstands either, but some do not want to bother locating a place to park.
the rack and reflectors… not all want to have decent lights. I was bummed when my son’s taillight was stolen. So it goes, a reflector might have been good at dusk.
at least toe clips and straps.
the convenience features… when I sold bikes I called them just that. Much less braking power from those extensions.
the sad? The crooked valve stem(s) rear is hiding from sight. Usually go together. Should be corrected.
