Built from aluminum die-cast GD-AlSi9Cu3 with a powder-coated metallic silver finish, this kickstand combines lightweight construction with exceptional durability—weighing just 260 grams while supporting loads up to 18 kg (39.6 lbs). The standout feature of the Comp Zoom is its tool-free adjustability in 7.5mm increments, allowing precise length adjustment from 315mm to 380mm (12.4\" to 15\") to accommodate wheel sizes from 26\" to 29\". This makes it ideal for touring bikes, commuter bikes, hybrid bikes, and e-bikes where versatility and reliability are essential. The spring-loaded side movement mechanism provides smooth deployment and retraction, while the dampening system ensures controlled, quiet operation without rattling or harsh metal-on-metal contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for rear chainstay mounting with 18mm support hole spacing, this kickstand attaches securely to the bicycle frame using included stainless steel mounting hardware (M5x20 or M6x20 screws, depending on frame configuration). The hardened steel pin is zinc-plated for corrosion resistance, and the large-surface plastic kickstand shoe provides stable support on various surfaces—from asphalt to gravel—while protecting floors indoors. The fatigue-tested spring mechanism has been rigorously tested to ensure long-term reliability even under frequent daily use. Made in Switzerland with Pletscher's renowned attention to detail and quality, this kickstand represents the kind of dependable, well-engineered component that touring cyclists and commuters have trusted for decades. Available in powder-coated metallic silver finish to complement classic and modern bicycle aesthetics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuilt to Last\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum die-cast construction—GD-AlSi9Cu3 alloy for lightweight strength (260g weight).\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTool-free length adjustment—expandable in 7.5mm increments from 315mm to 380mm (12.4\" to 15\").\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits wheel sizes 26\" to 29\"—versatile sizing accommodates touring bikes, hybrids, commuters, and e-bikes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring-loaded side movement—smooth deployment and retraction with push-spring mechanism.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDampening system—controlled movement prevents harsh contact, reduces noise and wear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFatigue-tested spring mechanism—rigorously tested for long-term reliability under frequent use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum load capacity: 18 kg (39.6 lbs)—suitable for loaded touring bikes and cargo-carrying applications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eESGE rear kickstand design—classic European standard for chainstay-mounted kickstands.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e18mm support hole distance—standard spacing for rear chainstay mounting on most bikes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePowder-coated metallic silver finish—durable, corrosion-resistant coating with classic appearance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHardened steel pin—zinc-plated for long-lasting corrosion resistance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel mounting screws—included M5x20 or M6x20 hardware resists rust and corrosion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLarge-surface plastic kickstand shoe—provides stable support on various surfaces, protects indoor floors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack plastic shoe included—durable polyurethane construction with large contact area.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSwiss Made quality—designed and manufactured in Switzerland by Pletscher AG.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProven reliability—Pletscher kickstands trusted by touring cyclists and commuters for decades.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with F13 or F14 kickstand shoes (optional)—upgrade or replacement shoes available separately.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eModern and stylish design—clean lines and quality finish complement contemporary and classic bicycles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEasy installation—mounts to rear chainstay with included hardware (special sizes available on request).\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdjustable without tools—set desired length by extending strut and securing with integrated adjustment mechanism.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Pletscher","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":51031385112898,"sku":"PLE\/52575","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0937\/5177\/1458\/files\/pletscher-18mm-direct-mount-kickstand.avif?v=1768246631","url":"https:\/\/clevercycles.com\/products\/pletscher-comp-zoom-adjustable-rear-mount-kickstan","provider":"Clever Cycles | Bikes \u0026 Ebikes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
