When I last left off in my chronicles of life with the CAKE ösa +, I was waiting for a new charger box, larger battery, and side stand package. They all showed up, and the new charger box was exactly what I needed to get back out on the road. It’s working exactly as it should, as of the time of writing—and it’s done that since day one.
The side stand—much like the center stand that comes installed on the bike—is a robust, painted black metal unit. Since it uses some of the same mounting points as the center stand, you have to first remove the center stand before installing the side stand. Although the ösa + is very lightweight as compared to most other bikes, that means you’ll still either require an extra set of hands, or else an external stand to park the bike on while you’re working on it.
