I accidentally broke my kickstand during assembly. Aventon sent another within 2 weeks. I like that the kickstand does not interfere with the pedals and it seems sturdy. Love my new bikes.

Appears to be more robust that the original kickstand

My husband likes this kickstand better than the original one on his bike. He said that it is heavier, the foot is larger and it works better in the sand.

This kickstand is way better than the stock kickstand the bike came with. Maybe they are swapping that one for this one. The bike is much more stable. Huge improvemnt.

The original kickstand was light but not a good match for E-bike that are typically heavier. The replacement kickstand is much more stronger and made of heavier guage.

I think Aventon should proactively replace original kickstand with heavier guage, stronger kickstand.
