>>1904701Consider picrel.
Picrel provides absolutely stable and solid engagement. On all terrains and slopes. Can always opt to leave picrel at home or take along, as needed. Picrel easily stashes in an easily acessible location like feedbag, bottle, front rack ... whip it out and lean your bike when needed.
Kickstands... I want a really good one. One that doesn't fail and keeps your bike upright once you engaged it. The sad truth is that almost all of them suck or are 2 kg bulky behemoths of a lump.
