I love my Terry, if I ever give it up, it will be for another Terry. Otherwise I'd have to go custom-made.
And btw, yes, that IS a kickstand on there. Much as it burns some people's butts, a kickstand is a must-have item for me. I didn't pay that much for a bike only to have to lay it down in the dirt and scratch the paint up, LOL!By charity, goodness, restraint, and self-control men and woman alike can store up a well-hidden treasure -- a treasure which cannot be given to others and which robbers cannot steal. A wise person should do good. That is the treasure that cannot be lost.

What I REALLY wanted was one of those Esge double pronged stands. Originally Posted by sundial

Unfortunately it won't fit on the tubing they used, it's too fat.
Imagine having your panniers full and having to lay the bike down in the dirt!
