now, i dont really know what that means. does it mean that you are
still supposed to use the top plate even with a kickstand plate?
Sounds like that's exactly what it means.
that would seem to defeat the purpose of a kickstand plate, since the
top part cant fit between the chainstays and would therefore have to
go on top.
also, the product page with that warning, HERE
<http://www.rivbike.com/product-p/k21.htm> , clearly shows it bolted
directly to the kickstand plate.
That's not what it looks like to me. The Pletscher bracket is on top of
the chain stays (with some kind of bumper between the top plate and the
stays) and the "kickstand plate," if it's anything like the one I have
on one or two other bikes, is level with the center of the stays, as
shown here:
anyway, maybe im misreading it. maybe you are supposed to put the
plate on top and run a really long bolt through pletscher
plate>air>kickstand plate>kickstand? seems weird to me.
Exactly what they're saying. And I'll bet they base that warning on
experience.
