Great item...simple and sometimes simple is best
Ordered the 305mm model, as I did not know the required length and wanted to have extra material to remove as opposed to it not being long enough. In the end, I could have gotten away with the 285mm version. Anyways, I ended up cutting this down to 280 after some measuring and estimating to factor in for the rubber foot I purchased separately (made by Greenfield for this model). One note: the diameter of the kickstand is consistent in any place you would reasonably cut it. So I installed the foot on this before cutting it down and it fit the same afterwards.There are lines to help with measurements and the necessary angled cut. This is soft aluminum, so with a mini-hacksaw the process was very simple. You do end up with some sharp edges if you have to shorten this, so I beveled the edges with a file and highly recommend this extra step for safety. Total time to cut down and bevel was probably 10 minutes.My bicycle has the plate for a kickstand brazed on, but given that the bolt is so long and it comes with the top plate, I chose to install as pictured using all parts. Installation is very easy; my socket wouldn't clear in such a cramped area, so an open ended 9/16 wrench was all I needed to put this on.Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Kickstand! Sizing Info...
Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2018
I've bought five of these kickstands over the past couple years for all the bikes in my family and am about to buy two more. This kickstand is a MUST for all bikes! I don't know why bike manufacturers aren't using this design anymore - the ones that come on bikes these days is a joke. I bought my first one for the Specialized comfort bike I purchased for my wife for her birthday. (For $450, you'd think a bike would come with a kickstand, but I digress...) The kick stand worked great and it looked like it was a factory installed part! With that success, I tackled all my kids' bikes, which all have that joke of a two-position kickstand that comes on all Walmart/Target bikes these day. These factory installed disasters are impossible for little feet to actually move without kicking it 7-8 times, and they inherently loosen and fall off the bike after about a year. Wow, what a difference this <$10 upgrade makes!

I just now just installed one on my Specialized road bike that I've had for 10 years. For all of you that may be thinking:

--"Oh no, I just put 80 grams more weight on my bike, and now I won't be a super-fast biker anymore!", or
--"This kickstand will make my bike less aerodynamic, add more drag to my ride, and will make me go 0.00003 mph slower!, or
--"If anybody sees me with a kickstand on my super-expensive showy-offy bike, other bikers will laugh at me no matter how cool my Spandex is!"

Toughen up, ride harder, and INSTALL THIS KICKSTAND!

I can not believe it took me this long to do it myself, but I absolutely love it and wish I would have done it from Day 1. The next one I order is going on my mountain bike. Yes, you heard me correct: I'm installing a kickstand on a MOUNTAIN BIKE! <Gasp!>

Now for the sizing (and probably now the most useful part of my review). The other nice thing about these kickstands is that they are made out of aluminum, and if it is too long, you can easily cut it down to size with a hacksaw with relative ease (if you have a metal file, that helps too to soften the cut edges and de-burr it, but it's not necessary). There are even cut lines on the kickstand to help with the cutting at the correct angle. To date, I have installed the following:

>305 mm kickstand: Men's Specialized 23" (XL) road bike. This kickstand was way too big. I ended up cutting it down 5 times, removing around 1.75 inches before it was the right size.
>305 mm kickstand: Men's Fuji 19" (M) mountain bike. Fits perfectly.
>285 mm kickstand: Women's Specialized (M) comfort bike. Had to cut off about 2". Now fits perfectly.
>285 mm kickstand: Women's Diamondback (M) comfort bike. Fits perfectly. (Same size frame as above, but frame is higher off the ground)
>285 mm kickstand: Teenager 14.5" mountain bike. Fits perfectly

In summary, if the base of your bike of the bottom kickstand plate will be mounted is less than 10.75", then the 285 mm should work out fine. If it is higher than that, then I'd go for the 305 mm.

One other thing to note: some bikes have rear derailleur or brake cables running near where this is mounted - sometimes there can be an interference with the kickstand (see my second uploaded photo). This hasn't been an issue yet, but where there is an interference, the rubbing may wear down the cable over time - we'll have to see. Last, some reviewers have mentioned that theirs came with rubber boots - none of mine have (nor do I want them).

5.0 out of 5 stars A tried and true kickstand that mounts perfectly and should last forever.
Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2021
My 1995 Trek 820 mountain bike never came with a kickstand. For twenty years I'd lay the thing on the ground or rest it on a tree whenever I needed to get off. I've been riding a lot more lately and I got sick of not being able to get off the bike and stand it anywhere. My wife's Nishiki from 1992 had a kickstand. She'd get off her bike and she could stand it anywhere while I'm looking for a tree to rest it against. So dumb.

I looked on Amazon for kickstands and there were all these weird looking plastic stands that mount further down near your tire. They were small and they didn't look very secure.

Then I found a stand that is made by the same company that my wife's Nishiki bike has. It's the same darn thing. It mounts at the frame joint just like my wife's old bike. You just line up the top and bottom plate and screw it on tightly. Now I've got a really nice black kickstand that looks like it's always been part of the bike. It attached quickly and securely and it works like gangbusters. Now no matter where I am - on a trail, in a parking lot, on the side of the road, a quick kick down and I'm off the bike. Perfection.

I like that the same company makes the same stand that came with a bike that is over 30 years old. It's kickstand engineering perfection. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, right?

I can't believe it took me this long to get a kickstand. But now I have one and my bike is so much happier. I'm so much happier.

Get this stand. Make sure it will fit on your bike, but get this stand once you know it will work. It's the grandpa of kickstands. Accept no substitutes.

Kick it up.
