Badly:
-no instructions included. Not even a picture of the product mounted.
the contact surface against the bicycle frame consists of metal. No rubber that protects the paint or contributes to friction. The result is that the entire package rotates under load, to eventually loosen. This is regardless of how hard you tighten the screws.
- the length of the arm was too long for my bike (52 ")
- absolutely does not work on all bikes (not a universal solution by any means)
Good:
-easily, could in theory work on the right bike
Summary:
Avoid like the plague

I have a bicycle with a 26 "wheel. I thought about the opinion of this bead for a long time. It is amazing, the idea is brilliant, the quality of the materials is great, yet its execution is tragic and its operation is a nightmare.
Let me start with the pros: the idea and mounting on the bottom bracket, simplicity and good quality of materials, aesthetics and fitting into the bike - this is not a typical footer that lets you know from a distance that this is the head of the family - it is subtle and gently hides under the rear triangle of the frame in this respect, it is a fairy tale, a revelation.
If I had to judge these aspects and the idea itself, I'd rate it 6 out of 5 stars.
But no. It won't be that easy. Now for the disadvantages: first of all, for the foot to work properly, a washer was placed on the bearing (thanks to which it folds and unfolds). Much too thick pad. Effect? After unfolding the foot, it begins to move away from it, perpendicular to it, giving the impression that it is about to break off. Secondly, due to the fact that the bead moves away, the center of gravity of the bike is shaken - it is enough to lightly tap the saddle and the whole bike overturns. In addition, the rubber at the end of the foot is slightly unstable. In addition, the manufacturer does not include any instructions (advertising his product as matching the 26 "and 28" wheel), and translating the bead onto a larger wheel is not easy at all and it is not intuitive at all. Not only that, I managed to find a third type of transmission - how? I don't know, don't ask, black magic.
But I have not given up on this footer and returned it. I liked the idea of mounting on a bottom bracket too much and I wanted a "clean" frame. So what did i have to do? Replacing the washer on the bearing did not help, so I had to slim it down by filing it down to make it thinner. Thanks to this, the foot after opening became a bit more stable. I also noticed that it was a bit short, so I took a hand-held threader, drilled the thread in the bead tube (it's hollow), added a 30mm screw with two screw caps, and put rubber on the end of it. I put black electrical tape on this modification. Is it working? Of course it finally works. Does it look bad? Surprisingly no, this is the tip of the shoe, they never look great, so this modification is not noticeable either.
And all this in the most expensive footer I have ever seen. The producer should be really ashamed.

Good stand for non standard frames

This stand has been installed on a cyclocross steel bicycle with a frame not intended for a crutch (Genesis Iron Cross).
Delivery on time and easy assembly in 10min.
The product and good quality, does not vibrate when the bicycle rolls and stabilizes properly when stopped.
I just find the price a bit high compared to other models but the adaptability it pays.
