Hi xtracycle ! Any chance this wonderful kickstand would work on a Mongoose Envoy Cargo bike ? Thanks !

Ashley (Xtracycle staff) –
Hey there, Yann!
I’m sorry but I don’t believe this kickstand will fit your bike. A Rolling Jackass from Cycle Fab might work. I would recommend reaching out to them to see! http://www.rollingjackass.com/

Is the kickback 3 compatible with the surly big dummy?

Mark Swier –
Why are these so expensive? I can’t understand it. It’s borderline offensive.
(0) (0)
Ashley (Xtracycle staff) –
Hey there, Mark! The price of the KickBack 3 reflects the custom pieces and tooling required to manufacture it. The KB3 is intended for heavier weights commonly carried on cargo bike. If you aren’t hauling a heavy load or children, there are a number of lower cost center kickstands on the market but they tend to not be as stable.

Ashley (Xtracycle staff) –
Hey there, Matt! No, it is not. We recommend taking a look at the Rolling Jackass: http://www.rollingjackass.com/

Hi does this fit the RFA? The stand for our RFA drags on the ground often and a higher clearance stand would be great.

Ashley (Xtracycle staff) –
Hey there, Rob! I’m so sorry to hear about your kickstand issues. It sounds like it might be covered under warranty so I will email the claim form if you would like to file a claim.
This kickstand WILL NOT fit on an RFA.

Do you know if this will fit a 2018 Rad Power RadWagon?

Ashley (Xtracycle staff) –
Hey there, Ben! I am not sure if this will fit the Rad Wagon but I would assume not since it’s pretty custom built to fit our bikes and Leap kits. Sorry I don’t have a more solid answer for you!

Hi! I lost the rubber end part and was wondering where I could get a replacement. Thanks!

Ashley (Xtracycle staff) –
Hey there, Norman! While we don’t sell these separately, they are easy to find at your local hardware store or online for a few bucks. They are just regular 7/8″ rubber chair end caps. Hope that helps!

This is a major improvement over the Kickback 2. It’s very sturdy and simple.
While I love this kickstand, it would be nice if it came with better, solid end plugs like the Kickback 2 did. If you do lose or wear out the endcaps, replace them immediately or the aluminum will get worn down / sharpened. Also, leave them longer than you think you’ll need (if you’re cutting them yourself). I didn’t and if I try park on very uneven ground the kickstand doesn’t always reach the ground.

Do you have replacement rubber feet for the kickback stand. One has fallen off and the other is worn through in only 3 months

Douglas Butchart –
I am also looking for replacement feet xtracycle dealers near me say they are unavailable?
(0) (0)
Ashley (Xtracycle staff) –
Hey there, Douglas! While we don’t have any KB3 feet available, the good news is the feet are a common hardware store item and easy to replace. The feet are just regular 7/8″ rubber chair end caps that can be found at any hardware store for a few dollars, typically under $3 for a set of 4. Wrapping some duct tape on the end of the KickBack leg before you slide it on there might help it stay more firmly installed on the leg for the future. I hope that helps!

Shunhui –
Hi, I own a cargo node. Would this stand fit the cargo node? Is this more sturdy and more stable than the original stand on the cargo node?
(0) (0) Watch Unwatch
Admin Kris (Xtracycle staff) –
Hi Shunhui! Yes, the KickBack3 is designed to fit the CargoNode as well. It is wider than the KickBack2 and more stable for unloading and loading.

My favorite thing about this stand is that you just push the bike forward to release – no need to shift your weight or adjust your foot – just start riding when ready and you are good to go.

This kickstand is central to our safe riding with our kid or the occasional heavy cargo load. I wouldn’t trust any other.

Mine is corroded and abused, lives outdoors year-round in Boston weather and winter road salt, gets no care or love, and it always does the job. It’s a sturdy and reliable bike stand, easy to use, easy to adapt (I added bar-ends to mine for a wider stance). One of the best pictures I’ve ever taken, I took standing on the deck of my big dummy supported by a kickback stand, it was stable enough for me to stand and snap till I got this:

The Kickback is fantastic. It is easy to deploy and holds the bike solidly for loading, even of awkward loads. Have had it on there for years. Shock cord return wore and broke after a couple of years and in about ten minutes I was able to simply shorten it and keep using it and it has not broken again several years since.There are only two downsides. First, it is a bit difficult to put on the Wideloaders (tip: disconnect the return cord first). Not a huge deal.Second, if one wants to run an internal hub and not have a chain tensioner (say by using an eccentric bottom bracket–EBB), chain routing cannot be straight as the chain would have to pass through the Kickback and would be crushed upon deployment of the stand. Workaround is to route the chain above it all using a roller mounted to the bike frame, but that is almost as cumbersome as the tensioner an EBB would replace.Overall a wonderful product that I would not be without on a cargobike.

The Kickback is so easy to install and works with out any issues and is easy to adjust when needed. I am extremely happy with how stable and well designed it is.

This heavy duty kick stand is key to enabling maximum duty performance from a cargo bike. I can load and unload big hauls without fear of the bike tipping over.

Almost didn’t order one but glad I did, the stability of the kickstand adds peace of mind when I have 3 kids wiggling on the back. I can walk around and load gear and kids without worry of it falling over. I also like the fact you can adjust the kickstand height as well.

Just pretend this is part of the cost of the conversion kit and not an expensive extra, you’ll never regret it.

The KickBack is just essential to have. Yeah, I suppose the kickstand that comes standard would work, but spend the money and get the KickBack. Totally worth it.

These things just plain work and are essential for anyone loading or unloading their Xtracycle. I used on in conjunction with a kid carrier and always felt safe having the kid supported with the KickBack. Get one – it is worth it!

I’ve been using my KickBack since its inception in 2008. Fresh out the box, baby was a game changer for how I used my Xtracycle longtail cargo bike. No more fear of, “Did I unload the right side first?” No more weak, floppy, bending aluminum kickstands. No sireee! Now I can go totally hands free, leaving my bike to my trusty KickBack and off I go on my errand, adventure, or random curb find.You may want to get an extra spring as they do stretch over time with use, but I even took my stand with me on a Ecuador-Peru bicycle trip and it was an essential part of my kit. Don’t buy an Xtracycle without one!

I’ve been an xtracycle fan and user for over 9 years now, and I’ve managed to load all sorts of things like beds and compost and plants on my freeradical. When I revamped my wheels for carrying precious cargo that like to climb and hop and jump, the Kickback was top on my list. It really does make the bike stable enough for my son to climb on top the bike by himself. It functions just like a motorcycle centerstand, and it super easy to use and kick off of when we are ready to go.
