Title: kick stand for Raven sport tour mk1
Post by: redcogs on March 23, 2010, 07:42:29 PM

I've had a single legged stand for a few years and its been fine.  However, I now find that a twin legged one may be more suitable for my purposes, so I wondered if anyone could recommend one that would fit the Raven, bearing in mind the larger bottom bracket for the EBB.

Any advice would be appreciated.

A twin leg kickstand will invalidate the frame warranty.

If you have a front rack you can put one of these on it

It gives you a second support along with a normal rear stand.

Frame warranty isn't an issue in my case.  I purchased the frame about five years ago via EBay as part of a self build initiative.  My Rohloff came from Germany and was attached to an unsatisfactory alloy frame which I   replaced with a steel Raven.

Anybody know of a twin legged kick stand which would fit properly?
