I've a Kona Minute - it's great..love the thing.
The Kona stand was 'OK' - it worked, but was a bit unsteady.

Anyway, it died a death due to metal fatigue - one of the legs just gave way and snapped off!

I found a really great replacement [url= https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00D1T90XK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ]here[/url].
Only £33, is neat in that it 'folds in' when up, so you don't scrape the legs when cornering aggressively, and it's MUCH wider than the original - It feels so much sturdier.

anyway, thought that might be of use to some!

[i]cornering aggressively[/i]

That's when you shout "**** off you ****er" at the tarmac isn't it?

Damn you. Same happened to my Ute a couple of months back and I just replaced it like-for-like at great expense. It does annoy me how it catches the ground when riding and doesn't work (stand) too well when on off road too.
