Anyone know what these 2 holes on chainstay are?

My guess would be for a direct mount kickstand. What’s the bike make/model?

I'm going kickstand mounts too, like this one.

I know Cube used to have mounts like that for their stands.

Got them on Trek & asked what they were for & the answer was Kickstand!

[T4tomo]

bottle mounts for emergency miniature bottle of scotch?

Cheers guys, makes sense about kickstand, bike is a Trek FX 7.3 Hybrid. This is my knockabout bike and when I go off road.

I have two similar underneath my non drive side chainstay.

Made enquiries with the manufacturer and they were there to fit external D12 gubbins. Obviously the same frame was used for normal and electronic shifting.

Bike is quite old and before the days of hidden gubbins.
