@Youngtounces needs advice on kickstands:

Q4. I would like to add a kickstand to my bike and I'm not sure if there is anything special to consider, or if it's pretty basic to add? 10 year old trek used for commuting, shopping, and basic rail-trail riding. Has rear rack and I often attach a trailer to go shopping. That's mostly why I want = some stability while I'm attaching and loading trailer and things on rack. Thanks!

A two-legged kickstand, imo, is most stable and, depending on the design can handle heavy-loading.

I have only had one of these, on a rental, but it worked well and, honestly, it is something I tell myself I need to upgrade on every bike but never get around to it.

It may make an appearance this year under the tree, as a gift to myself.
