how to install Bell Bracer 100 that comes with a spring? After installin will the kickstand be dangling downward or can move to the side of the frame?

I don't know what you mean by spring... but the kickstand does not dangle, it moves up to the frame when not in use.

I'm not sure this answers your question but the kickstand is at about 90 degrees relative to the bike frame when down and parallel to the frame when raised.

I did this exact same task on my sporty. Did front and back. This is the most stable jack I have ever used and when working on the front, position it right before the kickstand and keeps it nice and still. Same thing in the back position it right behind the kickstand and off you go. I bought a long ratchet so I could hold onto the bar while lifting the bike. Alleviates a lot of concern of tossing the bike over. Well worth the money. I am buying a second jack so I can support one while I swap parts from the other. It really is the best jack I have used.

There is no kickstand with the bike. Should be an easy fix at your local bike shop. We hang our bikes at home or use the many local bike racks around town. We have taken the kickstands off all our bikes that came with one.

I'd call CURT customer support. But from the design two extensions would fit together. You would need a third cross support. (left side to right side) otherwise it would sag in the middle and stress the frame. It is a tough structure when assembled.

Its a kickstand. It seems to work well as long as you have a level surface.

The strut has four recessed channels at various heights along it. Prior to installing, you select how much lift you want 0-2" or so and put the snap ring in the slot. The spring support sits on that snap ring and, voila, you have you lift or no lift strut. The biggest disadvantage is that, once installed, you cannot adjust the height unless you take the whole strut off. It also puts a bit more load on your stock springs if you use one of the lifted slots so the ride might be more stuff.

On most bikes there are two frame rails. The stand itself goes centered under the rails with the plate that comes with the stand centered over the rails and bolted from the top down to the kickstand. Hope this is a help.

The axel "rod" is difficult to place into the frame holder. A mallet will not do it (you can't pound the rod into the holder) as continuous pressure is needed to force the rod into the plastic. What was successful was placing the axel rod above the frame holder and then using a flat piece of wood place it on top of the rod and putting heavy pressure (both hands down) on the wood board (not directly above the holder but just inside) and push down. It takes significant pressure. Do one side at a time. Once it's put together you will love it. CKK

Sorry it took so long to respond. This stand is very flimsy and requires extensive time to position it just right so it does not tilt over an fall sideways. I finally propped it against a wall and used a rubber mat to keep it from slipping. But once you get it to stand still, you really shouldn't move it otherwise you'll spend alot of time resetting it so it doesn't fall again. It works now and I saved alot of money since other stands were 2-3 times more but still on the fence on whether this was worth it given the extra time I had to put in to make it work.

Yes. I bought it for my son, but saw it just yesterday on his nighstand and it was on the kickstand sideways.

These supports adjust very easily. Place them in the middle of your frame and attach to your side rails be it wood etc. I just laid mine over my wood rails and wood screwed them to hold into position. The supports slide to fit your frame, adjust the height and the tighten the L screw by hand and your done.

Hey Dean, haven't mounted the mount yet... Not readily available for a few days so can't check. I do like the product and don't see an issue and should straddle frame, but not sure.

I just put my bike on crooked using the frame, but it would no doubt be better and more stable if I got a cross-bar adapter such as the Allen Sports Tension Bar Bicycle Cross-Bar Adapter which is one of the less expensive of such bars available on Amazon. May be I'll order one, myself :)!

This is a universal kickstand. Once mounted you have to cut off some of it at the foot to stabilize the bike. Great stand and very reliable. I have the same brand installed on three bikes. Hope this helps.

If the trailer attached at the spindle bolt you should be okay. I am fairly certain that the kickstand only attached around your frame, not at the spindle bolt. I don't think this kickstand and the trailer will be in conflict. Since I am not looking at either one right now I can't be 100% certain, but I don't think that it would be an issue. Hope this helps!

I put my bike on the other way around. I put the bike with the front to the left on the inner mount. The down bracket secures around the angled lower part of the frame.

Dude, its just a small piece of plastic. Put it on the ground, hold the bike up, kick it near your kickstand and then put the stand down.
