I’m at that age where I notice little things, you know? <\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

The sidestand is a super important part,
but

it’s completely unloved in reality.
You use the sidestand every time you get on and off the bike, right?


When it deploys smoothly
“whoosh” <\/strong>
oh wow, that’s cool! (*\u00b4\u8278`)

Am I the only one who thinks that?

By the way, when it comes to things you don’t like about your bike,
“it’s good to write them down,” <\/strong>
before you add aftermarket parts.
Could things get even better? The footwork area…
It’s quietly fun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n
\n

Yeah! It’s damn hard to deploy. <\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

It’s hard to define what “easy to deploy” means, but…
“You can deploy it without looking at the stand” <\/strong>
That’s important.
If I’m being greedy, that’s the kind of thing I want. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tool is excellent. <\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

Metal craft:
RBR (Roll Bender Rivet) tools <\/a><\/strong>
You can bend round, square, and flat stock.
Adjustable by the finesse of your force.
An ultra-good tool.

I dislike the phrase “pay for itself.”
I want to enable quality work in less time.
I recommend it for people like that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n

Back in the day I used bending dies. <\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

With dies, there are limits to the arm length and pitch,
so making small items was a hassle.
That’s when I found this tool.

As long as it fits in the valley,
you can bend it freely.
No tricks needed\u2014 “Wait, it’s this easy?” <\/strong>
A truly excellent tool
is like that, I think.
*Complex shapes do require some technique though. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>

Like this,
I bent it! <\/p>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Most importantly,
since there’s no heat, nothing gets burned.
“I want to bend it a bit more” is also possible.
High recovery rate! (*\u00b4\u03c9`*) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>

Quick and easy,
I welded it! <\/p>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

With old bikes from overseas,
sometimes bolts are welded on\u2014
that used to happen back in the day.
If it fits as close to original as possible
and looks good, I think you can love it even more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inevitably easy to deploy! \u266a <\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

I basically do this work on my bike all the time.

It’s a small thing, but
“little things add up to less fatigue.”
Keep accumulating improvements
and gradually make it your own. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n
\n

Too much trouble, so I’ll use a stylus… <\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

Just disassemble the sidestand once in a while, clean it, and oil it\u2014
the movement becomes totally different! <\/p>\n\n\n\t\t
