The way it attaches to the chainstays in that typical kick stand way makes it hard to really get snug. And if you get it too snug, you can crimp the stays. if you don't get it snug enough, it liks to loosen up. Then shit really goes south. I put a dab of red locktight in there to keep it snug for life. But thre's still a bit of play in there that bugs me.<br />- the lenght on the legs matters and I'm too lazy to dial it in. If you know of a good front stand solution to buy or make, I'd give it a shot.<br /><br />-- i'll be building the xl-fdd up next week. i think i'm going to tie the bracket into one of the cleat mounting points, lots of options there. we'll see. i'll blog aplenty on it as i work thorugh it.<br /><br />Anon: funny you should mention that. Maddie actually asked for a place for her rootbeer the other day on the way home from a growler run. I'm considering a sunken cup holder that doesn't get in the way of load hauling. can you believe it?

With Emma at only6 months, i have some time before I get to worry about carrying her.<br /><br />also, I have been wanting to put the kickstand in the front, to support the front wheel, but is the kickstant mounted in the back a problem? should I really worry about this?<br /><br />oh, and the xl-fdd was not fun to build. especially with that length spoke. i have yet to figure out where to mount the front light, but i'm thinking the tip of the boomtube.rorynoreply@blogger.com
