Trek 4300 Bicycle Kickstand Replacement

Introduction

The kickstand has three parts: a bracket, a bolt, and the stand. To replace the kickstand the bracket and bolt will need to be removed to allow for the removal of the stand.

Flip the bike over so it is balanced and resting on the handlebar and the bike seat.
Using a socket screwdriver with a hex adapter, loosen the bolt that is holding the kickstand and bracket in place.
This may require a moderate amount of strength. Make sure you have the proper hex adapter as to not strip the bolt.

Once the bolt is loose, unscrew it the rest of the way by hand.
Remove the bolt. There should now be three separate pieces: the bolt, the bracket, and the kickstand.
Make sure to note the position of the bracket before you remove the bolt completely
