just put 25" ape hangers on one of my bikes and a normal kickstand doesn't stand a chance with all the cantilevered weight; what are my options?
kick stand for top-heavy bike?

looking like a double kickstand may be the ticket. anyone ever do anything DIY to a normal kickstand for added stability though?
Hey I have had great luck with a spring loaded drop stand I got from eBay. The wife has a newspaper rack and will uneven load it.
how tall are you , those apes hanger ar huge !
haha. i'm 6'3".. they're much more comfortable than they look actually!
My bars are underslung but the weight is still up there...
Find an axle mount stand. They also can fold forward or rearwards.
That's what works on mine...

Need a quick release seat post clamp next...

I use the Ursus Jumbo Double Kickstand on a top heavy bike. Expensive and heavy. I found this review online ; http://www.danielmoorephoto.com/Bic...stand/25661062_5HGCk5#!i=2119390032&k=2hN3rz9
