Nothing is worse than putting your sidestand down and having it sink into soft soil or asphalt. For years the solution has been everything from flatten drink cans to purpose made plastic pads with retrieval strings attached.
The challenge has been using your toe to slide the pad under the sidestand foot without dropping the bike. This can be quite a dance if done on loose gravel or wet slippery grass.
The guys at SafeTkick have come up with a unique product that ends this problem forever. The SafeTkick pad has a telescoping handle with a bright orange knob. When parking just pull the SafeTkick pad out of your tankbag or glovebox, extend the handle and simply place under the sidestand foot. The orange knob even provides a bit of a buffer zone to pedestrians. When it's time to go, hop on your bike, grab the handle pick it up, collapse the handle, store and go.
safeTkick is lightweight and portable just a little over 4"x 6".
