Thanks very much Haloguy, that's reassuring. I've already placed an order for the Abba fitting kit but was starting to look at the pin-through-the-axle stands.
The Abba can be a bit fiddly (on other bikes) and it's easy to get the attachment fittings out of line but when all is correct they are a very stable way to hold a bike upright, and even better than having a centre-stand because the support is on a wider base. Talking of centre-stands, the one on the Hyperstrada is extraordinary as the geometry is such that a very modest bodyweight on the arm lifts the bike immediately without any heft. I wish more were like that!
