Setup und Installation
This kickstand is designed for center mounting on bicycles with a dedicated mounting plate or bridge located under the bottom bracket. A 9mm Allen key (hex wrench) is required for installation (not included).
- Montagepunkt identifizieren: Locate the mounting plate or bridge under your bicycle's bottom bracket. This is typically a flat metal piece with a pre-drilled hole. Important: If your bicycle does not have this specific mounting point, this kickstand may not be compatible, or alternative mounting solutions may be required.
- Positionieren Sie den Seitenständer: Place the top mounting bracket of the kickstand against the bicycle's mounting plate, ensuring the kickstand leg points towards the rear wheel.
- Schraube einsetzen: Align the hole in the kickstand bracket with the hole in the bicycle's mounting plate. Insert the provided bolt through both holes from the top.
- Sichere Befestigungselemente: From underneath, place the washer onto the bolt, followed by the nut.
- Fest anziehen: Using a 9mm Allen key, tighten the bolt firmly. Ensure the kickstand is stable and does not wobble. Do not overtighten, but ensure it is secure enough to prevent movement during use.
- Freigabe prüfen: With the kickstand retracted, check that it does not interfere with the pedals, chain, or rear wheel when riding.
