Standard issue kickstand

I love that the BF team chose to build in a mount for a standard kickstand.  After seeing so many bikes falling over at the rest stops on past rides, it was quite a luxury to bolt on a standard $6 kickstand.  The kickstand didn't even require any cutting as the mount is the same distance from the ground as on a "normal" bike. 

Even the fancy pants road bikes don't have a place to mount a kickstand this good.  You'd think that if some of the other riders could afford a $5000 bike, they could also afford a $6 kickstand to keep it of the gravel.
