 perfect for an electric bike January 28, 2008

I installed an electric motor on my bicycle that (with the battery) added over 55 pounds in weight. This kickstand is somewhat like those designed for motorcycles. When it is in use (kicked) you have the choice of having either the front or the rear wheel off the ground. The new front wheel has the motor in its hub and weighs about 25 pounds thus the stand allows me to remove a very heavy wheel without lifting the bike. Over the rear wheel is the battery (about 30 pounds) and the help given by the stand is similar.
Item as described and heavy duty,..... May 30, 2008

Item as described and heavy duty,.....it was installed and operational on my 26" Schwinn Ranger MB after receiving it, in 5 minutes. Install was a breeze, take off the old, install the new. Fits like a glove. Note: You will need a large allen wrench. Item as pictured only, it does come with an additional longer screw.
I use my Schwinn for road use mainly and don't see a problem, dirt goer's may have an issue since it's just about 5"/6" off the ground when up. Tight cornering might cause you get kicked out/dug in since it protrudes end to end, 10", 5" each side. Just food for thought.
This kickstand was purchased as a recommended part of a ebike conversion, not this particular item, just in general, but I have to say I did pick right. When in use, your bike will have one wheel a few inches off the ground, that's the way it supposed to be. If you got a big heavy bike that falls down alot this kickstand will do the trick keeping it up.
The only thing I foresee happening though are the caps for the ends falling off. You have to kind of figure on that eventually. I'll glue mine in like one reviewer stated. I hope my review was of some help to you.

We use this stand for our electric bicycles since they are heavier and a normal side stand would not hold the bike - especially when we go shopping or to work and have the panniers filled.

Perfect. Just exactly what I was looking for, it adds 3-point stability and is perfect for my wife when she's hooking up the trailer for our son to ride behind her on trips to the neighborhood pool. The ability to raise the stand from either side of the bike comes in handy all the time. Strong, solid spring, easy to install, and doesn't get in the way of chains, pedals or other bike parts on her Target-grade Schwinn mountain bike. Worth every penny, and it doesn't cost many.
Buy it!
Very Stable March 24, 2008

It was very easy to install (about 5 minutes). My mountain bike is very stable when up on the kickstand. The best feature is being able to put the bike up on the kickstand or take it down off it from either side of the bike.
