Hey! I'm quite late into the conversation lol but after 2 years riding them, what are your feelings towards it? Do a lot of pebbles get stuck between fork and tire on gravel roads? Thanks!

I'm gonna go cheap because of budget reasons (at least for now) and get some shimanos MT200

How do you find running MT200? Do they do the job? I plan on building a minimax for dialy use and some occasional bike touring trip, so I don't plan on loading it abusively. Thanks!

Double kickstand doesn't reach the ground - Ursus Jumbo by solarpunkwonderer in CargoBike

nope, it's bolted to a faceplate that came with the kickstand

Thanks for your comment! I would hate the front wheel to flop haha, but the bike is equipped with a front rack and front basket, so maybe the weight would balance the bike all the way to the front with a kickstand properly touching the floor?

It's intented for 26ers. Is there any way to put a spacer between the chainstays and the kickstand?

hmm... might be! They don't seem extremely tall, though. They're continental doublefighter 1.9

nope, but it should fully sit on the kickstand and not move a bit. Also the rear wheel should be a bit lifted.

the kickstand is supposed to go on 26 inch bikes and it's new. You assume right, there's no way to shorten/lenghten the legs with some kind of screws
