Rear Mount Kickstand on Kona Dew Plus
I picked up a rear-mount kickstand from Dick's Sporting Goods this evening to mount on my Kona Dew Plus. I knew it wouldn't accept a regular kickstand, so I got this one. Started to put it together and realized that the bracket won't make contact with both points on the frame. I went ahead and tightened it down on one, to see if it would work. It seems ok, and out of the way from the pedal and rear brake.
Should I worry about this? It's on there solid and hasn't moved through 5 or so kicks. |
Pictures would be helpful

Here's a link to how I've got it set up.

I am not liking your new kickstand set up. It looks like an accident waiting to happen. Why can't you use a kickstand that goes behind the bottom bracket?

^^^This.^^^
I wouldn't trust it. |
having the disc brake there too, adds complication ..
those 2 holes ro the rear of what you have is for a different type of kickstand , that you may have to import from Europe 2 bolts hold it to that pair of holes .. how far apart are they? this is the KS to mount on those 2 bolts . Gebrüder Pletscher AG, Druckgusswerk Gebrüder Pletscher AG, Druckgusswerk NB: 2 spreads between those 2 bolts .. |
I like those rear stay mounted kickstands, but it doesn't look like a safe/secure option for this bike.
