Product Upgrades as of January 2024

• Pletscher replaced the compression spring for all our kickstands with new spring steel and optimized the lifting and shear stress. This results in a kickstand with a much more stable spring and longer functionality.
• Corrosion protection All kickstands and luggage carriers are now provided with corrosion protection, as used in the automotive industry. This means that we can largely exclude the ingress of salt water, blistering, and edge corrosion.

NOTE: Returns Refunds

Please ensure this kickstand is suitable for your bicycle by double-checking, the mounting position behind the bottom bracket. If you require assistance email us photos of the center mounting area of your bicycle.
