I found this Esge double leg kickstand for $8.93 and an Esge/SKS double leg kickstand for $46.48. What's the difference?

the difference is $37.55.......... sorry I couldn't resist. seriously I'm not sure. I looked at the product description. the less expensive one weighs 8 ounces and has a shipping weight of 2 pounds. the more expensive one does not provide any product dimensions, but it does state that the shipping weight is 11 pounds. my guess is that the more expensive one is heavier and probably more sturdy and meant to support bigger bikes/heavier loads. I got the less expensive one, and for me it has worked. I use it on a hybrid bike. I put on a bike rack and carrier bags and use the bike to go grocery shopping. the stand I have works well. but it is necessary to balance the carrier bags, with fairly equal weight on each side. if unbalanced the stand will not support the bike, the bike will tip over. but I imagine that even with the heavier stand, you might encounter the same problem if only one side of the bike is loaded with heavy items.

The 2.1 is a style and the question is, "how big is your bike?" If you are a tall person and you got an appropriate sized bike, you may want this kickstand: Greenfield Retro Kit Kickstand (305-mm, Black) Otherwise, this one will work great.

Yes, they are better, actually much better. The definity's are quite "wobbly" and when you're training for planche (pushups with your legs in the air...unsupported) like I am, you want a product that feels solid - the Gorilla stands are very well made and very solid and surprisingly light weight. You will know the difference if you get them - if you're looking for assurance so you don't waste money, I can assure you they are better as I have both - I have been using the gorilla stands frequently with no issues at all.

The cheaper version comes with two bar clamps and no adjustable feet. The adjustable height version has identical t slot in table but doesn't come with bar clamps but instead comes with two toggles and four corner stops I have both and love both but thus far have only used bar clamps and never have had need to adjust legs so for me cheaper version best option but I highly recommend either

considering how cheap it is 5-8 bucks if you break the back kick stand part its not worth worrying about as its so cheap and basic .just be careful with it and watch what your doing ..if that what you where talking about again I apologies for this but what you typed barely made any sense . and I still cant understand what you where trying to type sir ..have a good day

There are 2 links in this item/package. I don't have a shorter/shortened kickstand and it's totally fine. You SHOULD get a shorter stand so that you get a better lean angle when parked, but i haven't had any problems. Just pay attention to where you park as far as slope, etc.I am very happy with these links, for what it's worth. :)

it doesn't normally cost anywhere close. It's $149.99 direct from buttkicker or $129 at other outlets. Those prices are for the version 2 which fixed an issue with the power amp overheating on the version 1 (this one makes no reference to version so one must assume he is selling the first version). Some goofballs price items this way so they can make people feel that they are getting a deal by posting the amazon link and then asking $300 or some funky number.

I agree with ShirralD on the stand. It is a bit more expensive but it is worth the stability. With the legs that come out for support it would be more stable when cutting 4x8's.

Looks like for an extra 3 dollars the belt clip/kickstand is much more versatile. You can turn the belt clip to hold phone vertically or horizontally.. whereas for 9.99 you can only use kickstand, which is separate from belt clip, to hold phone up horizontally. Less $ less versatility. :)

The problem here is that the entire web page was clearly written by someone with poor knowledge of English. There are two Delta cleats: red (for free rotation) and black (for fixed position). (Black Deltas will allow free rotation with a few specific models of Shimano-branded Looks from the mid-1990s, but these are very rare today.) There is no "true" or "one size." I don't know what will happen when you order this, since it is gibberish. I'd suggest buying it from someone who speaks a language other than gibberish, so you can tell what you're ordering. Just be sure you need the Delta cleat, not the newer Keo cleat for more recent models (they switched some time after 2005 or so). Most bike shops carry the red Delta cleats and the Keo cleats; black Delta cleats are not common, so you might need to order them online. But don't order from someone who bite the wax tadpole other so many differences become grapefruit. Get it?

I just use a flat rock if I need something under my kickstand. We have a lot of flat rock here. ☺

I have absolutely no idea what that would mean. There is no difference in "capacity" in Look Delta cleats. They do vary in "float" meaning that the black cleats have no "float" and hence lock in straight ahead while the red one's have 9 degrees or so of "lateral float". I find that because my feet tend to wobble a bit when I accelerate I accidentally clip-out with cleats without float. The Bi-Material cleats have slightly better wear characteristics but you should still always use cleat covers while off of the bike because all of these cleats are sensitive to wear.

I read that they were the same dimensions. Same body and everything. Just different kick stand. Unfortunately, it might work and it might not.

There are two links in the package and you will not need a shorter kickstand for your bike.

The ones straight from Cold Steel's site are 1st pick swords, guaranteed to be of the highest quality. The ones you find elsewhere MIGHT be of that quality, but are likely "seconds". It's not an uncommon practice for companies to sell their seconds elsewhere for cheaper. Often they have minor deficiencies. It's a bit of a gamble.

I don't understand why disc brakes would interfere with a kickstand - unless there is some type of brake cable flange that prohibits access to the kickstand bolt. I have a large-frame, 2012 Specialized bike with disc brakes, and I'm using this kickstand. Granted, it was a little difficult to install, as it required a deep socket wrench to access the bolt on top - but I paid my local bike shop $5 to install it. Once on the mechanic's stand, they dropped the rear wheel and were done in 5 minutes. Maybe you should try a different bike shop. To me the convenience of a kickstand far outweighs a $5 or $10 cost to have it installed by someone with the right tools - 'might save you some knuckle skin too.

Saw the previous answer which is correct, but save your learning curve time; go with GG&G; XDS-2 Tactical Bipod. Pricier but SOLID! Amazon sells both
