I have a coaster brake hub, so the brake arm prevents me from using a rear mount kickstand like I usually do. I also have an expansion chamber which goes right along where a traditional center stand would mount. I can't use one of those rear axle mount "swing down" types either because my hub is a Nexus internal 3 spd and there is no extra axle to mount that kind to.
It seems I'm S.O.L.? Do I really have to get rid of my expansion chamber to get a kickstand on this thing?
In my experience even the heavy duty double leg center stands don't hold up to the weight of a steel cruiser with engine and shift kit because the actual bike bends where the kickstand attaches to that thin metal.
If anyone can remedy this you're a genius! I'm almost thinking you'd have to build a kickstand to mount on the rear somehow.
