Pletscher Multizoom kickstand review

At over half a kilo, this kickstand may not be especially light, but it’s sturdy enough to handle a fully laden touring bike. 

Easy to fit, it’s great for those photo opportunities without a place to lean your steed, or for when you need to park up to nip into a shop. Build quality is good and our model has stood up to several months of hard use. 

The load is braced across the chainstays and seatstays – we’d recommend taping them before fitting to protect your bike’s finish – with an adjustable arm that should fit most frame sizes. The leg can also be cut down to suit all wheel sizes.
