Get clear answers on the 323mm Turbo chainstay kickstand: which Turbo models it fits, how to install it, and how to check length and clearance before you buy.
Quick answer
The 323mm Turbo Chainstay-Mounted Kickstand is a replacement kickstand for compatible Turbo models that use a chainstay mount. Check your frame's mounting point and current kickstand length first; if either differs, this part is not a safe fit.
Why the 323mm length and chainstay mount matter
Kickstand length is not cosmetic. A leg that is too short lets the bike lean too far, and one that is too long can hold the rear wheel off the ground or foul the chainstay. The 323mm figure is the supplied size for this replacement part, so compare it with your existing kickstand or measure from the mount to the ground before ordering.
The chainstay-mounted design also matters because it places load on a specific frame area. If your Turbo does not have the matching chainstay fitting, this kickstand is not a universal add-on. Specialized lists it as a replacement for various Turbo models, so the safest approach is to match your exact model and mounting hardware rather than assuming all Turbo bikes share the same mount.
When this kickstand is the wrong choice
Skip this part if your bike uses a centre-mounted kickstand, a rear-axle mount, or a frame without a chainstay fitting. It is also the wrong choice if your current kickstand is a different length and you are not prepared to check ground clearance and lean angle after fitting.
The catalog lists colour and size as options, but it does not publish a compatibility list or torque figures. Treat those as unknowns to confirm with your dealer or the frame markings, not as details to guess.
Turbo kickstand fit and installation questions
- Which Turbo models does this kickstand fit?
- Specialized describes it as a replacement kickstand for various Turbo models. Match your exact model and chainstay mount before buying; the catalog does not list every compatible model, so confirm with your dealer if you are unsure.
- How do I check kickstand length before ordering?
- Measure your current kickstand from the mounting point to the ground, or compare the 323mm figure with the old part. If you cannot measure, do not order on length alone. A test fit before riding shows whether the bike leans safely and the rear wheel still spins freely.
- What tools do I need for the installation?
- Use the fasteners and mounting hardware already on your bike's chainstay mount, plus the correct hex keys for those fasteners. The catalog does not specify torque, so follow the markings on your frame or ask a dealer for the figure.
- How do I install the chainstay kickstand?
- Support the bike, remove the old kickstand if present, clean the mount, position the new kickstand at the chainstay fitting, and tighten the fasteners evenly. Then fold and unfold it once to confirm it clears the chainstay and tyre. Recheck fastener tightness after the first ride.
- How do I know the bike is stable after fitting?
- Set the bike down on level ground and check that it leans at a similar angle to before, the rear wheel is not lifted, and the kickstand does not touch the chain or frame. Adjust or stop using it if any of those fail.
- Can I use this on a non-Turbo bike?
- Do not assume so. The part is described as a replacement for compatible Turbo models, and a chainstay mount on another frame may not match the fitting or load path.
