I have a 50cm internal hub basic commuter bike that I love. I hated the kickstand on it, and it appears the bottom portion has left me forever 🥳 any suggestions? I carry a lot in the basket and I’m all function over fashion. Thanks 🙏

(P.S. I know it’s confusing and kind of stupid that I posted this blue bike stacked on yet another one of my personal blue bikes) sorry 😞
I kinda like this style that also attached to the seat stay so it can’t spin around the clamp [https://www.ebay.com/itm/196092149635](https://www.ebay.com/itm/196092149635). I have never used one but I like it
I got a Pletscher Multi Zoom last year and it’s been installed on my gravel bike since then not letting it fall even once. I’ve had heavy rear panniers but the bike stood on its own.
The kickstand has a nice spring and it is very satisfactory to pop into position.
It can be made longer or shorter depending on your tire size but I would say that 28.5″ tall rubber tires will be the height limit.

Look into the brand, I would say it is one of the best kickstand brands for bikes.
Best of luck on your search.
