Review on BV Bike Kickstand Adjustable Mountain by Elijah Balzarini

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Absolutely overrated - proper installation is a pain!

Like some of the other reviewers here, I also had a "doesn't stick properly or stay in place" issue - as reviewer "busydad" notes below in his July 1st review, look at that Product video from companies, and you can see how the rack dangles even when installed. I use my footpeg on a Schwinn Vantage F3 and ended up using a piece of old bike inner tube as a spacer between the footpeg clamps and chainstay and it finally worked. With 4.5 stars from over 2,000 reviewers, it seemed like a no-brainer. This is a rare occasion for me where the lower star reviewers were right. Once you figure out what works for you, you're good to go, and the extension feature is simple and easy to use, but getting it set up right was an utter pain. FYI, reviews from two years ago talk about the box the stand came in - it now comes in a plastic bag that Revain put in a padded envelope. Should be five bucks less for the installation headache.
