  2. There are about a billion bicycles in the world, twice as many as motorcars. Almost 400 million bicycles are in China. Every year some 50 million bicycles are produced. http://www.art.com/products/p13035296-sa-i2275931/alain-evrard-bicycles-in-the-rush-hour-kunming-yunnan-province-china.htm

  3. Bicycle Kickstands are supposed to hold bikes upright. http://nhfobb.wordpress.com/2010/05/04/a-better-touring-kickstand/

  4. Kickstands are hard to use correctly. http://www.nikolasschiller.com/blog/index.php/archives/category/bicycle/

  5. Over the past 30 years, bicycle delivery services have developed into an important industry, especially in cities, where the couriers have earned a reputation for their high speed and traffic-weaving skills. http://kids.nationalgeographic.com/kids/stories/morestories/ten-things-about-bikes/ http://www.newton.k12.ma.us/JingshanExchange/Spring_2002_Diaries.htm

  6. A better design would be a pneumatic kickstand that could be deployed at the press of a button, located next to the gear shifts.

  7. A better designed kickstand would also have a wider base to stabilize the bike better

  8. My design is easier to use and makes it easier to balance the bike than previous designs.

  9. My design would make a bike more expensive, and could have technical problems. Also it would weigh more. http://oil-in-middle-east.info/?cat=9 http://www.medicalscale1.com/category/balance-weight-scale/
