Kickstand
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The kickstand of a bicycle allows it to be kept upright without the aid of a person. The kickstand is usually a piece of metal that flips down from the frame and makes contact with the ground. It is generally located in the middle of the bike or towards the rear. One type of kickstand goes on the rear of the bike and when in use, causes the rear wheel to be lifted off the ground. Another type of kickstand is one that simply flips out from the area of the gear, and stands the bike up.
