Q45 with under the seat rack, any solution to have a stand ?

[zzThom]

Dear forum,

I have just received my Q45, this is a delight to cycle.

Looking at it "in real" I understand that I won't be able to both have the under the seat rack and the stock kick stand. Is there any solution to put a kick stand somewhere else ?

And a side question: what's the use of the threading under the main tube just in front of the seat ?

If you search the forum for “click stand” and steer you may find some answers

i've noticed that the Q45 Terracycle rack is sold out

wondering if there are any plans to bring this back, perhaps with the new Q, and would it fit the 2019 model?

Yes I know it is in the plan, maybe something like this:

could be adapted.

I got my Q earlier this year and was able to order the underseat rack directly from Terracycle. It's not on their website, but if you contact them thru their site they can send you a link for ordering.

The only clue I've found to your side question is in this thread: Burando using the down tube mount point for a steering lock (scroll down a few posts for picture and description)

@RojoRacing has a thread called Stop the Flop which I found by searching for rojoracing and “steering” in the cruzbike search at the top of the page.
