BV Adjustable Bicycle Bike Kickstand with Concealed Spring-Loaded Latch, for 24-29 Inch Bicycles

Took a risk and bought this for my new 20inch folding bike (an old stock unused Raleigh Eclipse). Turned out to be perfect for it.The bike in question game pre-fitted with a single kick stand (very basic and not very robust). I wanted to replace it with a double kickstand as the bike, when folded, has no means of keeping itself upright, causing it to fall down onto its very fragile chain guard.I was worried that a static double kickstand would foul the chain, so the design of this was perfect, with the whole mechanism sitting on the other side of the bike and still with plenty of clearance from the ground.With the legs on their shortest setting, it is perfect for a 20inch folding bike.Very well made, easy to fit (comes with short and long bolt to cater for flush and extended bracket fittings). I had it on in just a couple of minutes. You do need a socket and a ratchet to get it on though, rather than a spanner.It now means that when folded, as well as when parked, the bike will free stand. Highly recommended.

Situation:Having recently moved into a flat a 10 minute cycle ride from work I needed a solution to storing my bike inside. As the flat is rented, installing something into the wall wasn’t really an option. I also needed something that would assist in holding the bike up whilst I lock the door and then carry out down the stairs.Solution:Having looked at several different options and measuring my bike to make sure it would fit I ordered this, it took a little longer to come then standard prime items but it was worth the wait.Installation:Having flipped my bike upside down it was an extremely simple installation that took no more than 2 minutes to complete.Using the stand:When using the stand it is easy to unfold and fold using one foot and makes for a stable base to have the bike kept in the hallway inside my flat.Build quality:Top notch metal construction that feels like it is built to last. Have been using it for the past month without any issues. Will update the review if I experience any issues in the future.Summary:A great priced solution for storing a bike inside or out, or just a quick way to get your bike to stand up when out and about.

Bought this for my wife’s Victoria Pendleton bike as this with the only one that seem to fit style wise with my wives bike. I found it very easy to install, sturdy and well designed.They only things I fell it is lacking is some form of protection where the clamp attaches to the frame, to prevent damage. Also a choice of colours would be nice 😁

Really like this bike stand, was intrigued by the fact it was centre mounted rather than a side kickstand, and wasn't disappointed. Was fairly easy to fit and if your bike has a mounting for it, it will just attach straight on with the bolt supplied. Mines was a different design, and needed the longer bolt and the bracket, however was still easy to fit onto the centre mounting of the bike, only requiring an allen key to tighten it up.It also has adjustable length legs, to suit different sizes of frames and different desired heights. These are easily adjusted by loosening the screw with an allen key, and sliding the leg up or down.Stand works smoothly enough, just lift the back of the bike slightly and move the stand down with your foot, and it snaps into place. Putting it down is simply a matter of rolling your bike forward off the stand, and moving the stand back towards its mounting, and it will snap back closed.The kickstand also allows you to turn the backwheel and work on the gears etc while the bike is on the stand. Saves turning the bike upside down/if you don't have a proper bike repair stand.The only small negative that could be said was the fact that it weighs more than side leaning kickstands, but this was not much of an issue for me, and the benefits far outweigh (pun intended) the negative.If you think this review has assisted in your decision to purchase (or not purchase) this item, please indicate it has been helpful.Many thanks!

I used this one on my Fuji Touring bike and although I cut pieces of rubber to match upper and lower plates in order to prevent petal to metal rubbing still took off the paint underneath my bike which is steel and prone to rust!And now I have to buy expensive paint and paint it again to prevent it from rusting! To put on an old beaten up bike yes, don't use it on a new one will scrape off the paint at the places attached and you don't need that! Avoid!

Seems to be a well designed product but unfortunately did not fit our bike (Claude Butler Touriste), tandem bike but should not have made a difference. The fixed body mounting plate was not wide enough and the bolts were too short, even with some modification in order to fit the kickstand it would still foul the chainwheel/chain. Very disappointed.
