Q&A: Double-leg cycle kick stand
By Richard Hallett
Jim Moran
Some of the double-leg kick stands on the market are undoubtedly heavy and look to have been designed for the postal bike market. One that does not is made by venerable Swiss firm Pletscher, from die-cast aluminium alloy. Weighing under 600g, it costs around £26.
You should be able to order it from any shop that has an account with Chicken Cycles, the UK distributor. Stockists include Evans Cycles.
