I recently posted a thread about my Staton gear drive install. I used a 19" Schwinn, womens frame. The standard kickstand doesn't work, and this is weird. The rear brake is a center pull mounted along the bottom of the frame. This interferes with anything but a standard, light duty aluminum kickstand. I have been through several to try and make something work. A rear frame mount (got in the way of the chain drive) Pyramid double (interfered with brake cable) and now a rear axle heavy wire loop that fits over the tire and stands the bike. This last rear axle model will need to be fitted with a custom mount in order to have it fit properly. It was not really made to fit a bike with a derailier. Has anyone else had a problem mounting their kickstand? Can you make your own? I am planning on mounting it outboard of the rear axle nuts, as thats the only way I can see it attaching. I may have to machine a small part to make an adapter. Hope this link works. See for picture.
