US Patent 10207758 Kickstand assembly and a bicycle that utilizes the kickstand assembly

A kickstand assembly includes a post and a seat. A bicycle includes a frame and the kickstand assembly coupled to the frame. The post is disposed along a longitudinal axis and includes a first distal end and a second distal end. The seat is disposed at the first distal end of the post. The seat is movable between a use position and a non-use position. The kickstand assembly includes a kickstand disposed at the second distal end of the post, and extends outwardly away from the post transverse to the longitudinal axis. The kickstand is movable between a use position and a non-use position. The seat and the kickstand are fixed relative to each other at the respective first and second distal ends of the post such that movement of the seat to the non-use position directly causes movement of the kickstand to the use position.
