traditional rear mount kickstand...

[otchy]

I have looked all over the internet, and haven't found anybody having the same problem as I am

I bought a rear-axle kickstand that doesn't seem to fit my frame properly. What could I do to go about making it so it does? File it down, pound it out...??

I think that I'm more than likely going to have to do some kind of cosmetic modification.

cut, chop rebuild, hack it, beat it, bend it, weld it, throw it in the garbage, just kustomize it!!!!.....if it aint kustom, it just aint.....

A picture of the stand on the bike and a description of what the problem is would help in trying to figure out a fix.
I have one of those and never had good luck with it as it interfered with the hardware for pulling a trailer. What is better I think, is a center "butterfly" stand. But maybe we can get what you have to work. Post a pix.
