Before hitting that “complete order” button, make sure the Tern DuoStand in your cart will fit on your HSD. Check out this info provided by Tern, where they tell you everything you need to know about DuoStand compatibility.
1. Identifying Your HSD Frame Generation
Two types of HSD frames have been produced and sold. We refer to them as HSD Gen 1 and HSD Gen 1A. The only difference between these two frame types is the shape of the kickstand mount. Otherwise, the two frame types are completely identical.
Let’s take a look at the kickstand mount for each frame type. It’s located on your HSD’s chainstay, just in front of the rear wheel.
As you can see, the HSD Gen 1 has a flat kickstand mount. On the HSD Gen 1A, the kickstand mount also has vertical “walls.” These little walls provide built-in reinforcement for the kickstand mount.
2. Identifying Your DuoStand Generation
There are also two generations of the DuoStand. We refer to them as DuoStand Gen 1 and DuoStand Gen 2. The DuoStand Gen 2 is an updated version of the Gen 1, and there are some functional differences between the two.
Here’s what the two DuoStand generations look like:

| DuoStand Gen 1 | DuoStand Gen 2 |
As you can see, the two generations are quite visually distinct. The DuoStand Gen 2 has height-adjustable legs and rubber feet extending out to widen the stand’s support base.
