When I bought the bike it came with one. I took it off to get the fender on, and just never put it back on. Partially because I didn't want to mess with it, and partially because it was bent. I don't miss it too much.

Yes, I have a kickstand. I wake up with it every morning. It goes away after a cold shower and keeps me from rolling off my bed.

Yep. I get to park my commuter in my office at work, and I don't have a good way to "park" it without a kickstand.

It was a fairly generic one from ebay which cost around €20 I think. I've since cut the legs down a bit with a pipe cutter as I was having stability problems when loading my pannier (hence the second hebie rear stand I use just for the pannier in the morning on my uneven driveway). I'll probably get the Hebie 605 bipod if I ever need to replace it.

I am fortunate enough to not need a kickstand. I'm happy to not carry dead weight around or have the kickstand get in the way.
