Tire clearance decides which fender fits, not the wheel size alone · review
An adjustable aluminum side kickstand for wheels from 22 to 28 inches, with length from 12.2 to 14.2 inches and a wide non-slip foot.
Our conclusion A sensible stand for city bikes.
A kickstand is one of those parts that only matters on bikes that get parked often. Racing bikes do without it, and commuters wonder how they lived without it.
Aluminum alloy, a length that adjusts from 12.2 to 14.2 inches with a wrench, a fit for 22 to 28 inch wheels, a wide non-slip foot, a weight of 0.3 kg and a 12-month warranty.
Stand the bike upright, then adjust so that it leans slightly when the foot is down. A stand set too long pushes the bike over the other way. Soft ground makes a wide foot worthwhile.
Look at how the stand attaches. Rear-side stands bolt or clamp near the rear dropout. Check for any disc brake caliper or rack leg in the same place. Fat tires and heavy e-bikes need a sturdier stand than this.

The listing stops at 28 inches. A 29 inch wheel is close to 28 in diameter, but the length range should be checked on your frame.
We would not. A clamp on thin carbon tubes is a risk. Check with your frame maker.
