  1. Hi,

    I've just bought a new 2007 Giant Rincon which I am very happy with.
    One small problem I went to get a kick stand put on it and the dealer
    said they don't make stands that will fit the frame of the Rincon. The
    Rincon doesn't come with the usual metal plate to fasten the stand
    bracket to.

    Any advice? Has anyone fitted a stand to their Rincon? I can't seem to
    find an email address for Giant anywhere.

    Thanks,
    Ben

    Many will say that the kickstand is tres daggy, but I've returned to it in
    the past 4 years on my tourer and find it very useful. Go online here:

    aebike have given me great service, and this rear-stay mounted stand should
    fit on most bikes, certainly the Rincon I believe. I've used it for the past
    3 years and it happily holds up my bike while fully loaded with front and
    rear panniers.

    One other thing, if you're unwilling/unable to use your credit card on-line.
    In Melbourne you may be able to find this Greenfield kickstand at St Kilda
    Cycles or at Abbotsford Cycles.

    Not only is he retro in his bike accessories, but also in his attitude to
    being helpful on usenet. Come on, call me some names to show you've
    progressed out of civilization!
