barspins on a stock IRO frame/fork
I have a stock IRO frame and fork, I built up the rest. I found a bunch of used tires yesterday in pretty good shape and decided to try them out. one of them was 700x20 which I put up front.
I found I can now do barspins.
or at least its possible on my bike, I'm not really capable of pulling of the trick yet.
anyone else?

I see where you could get that those ups guys are not so cool when you grab onto their rig and get a lil lift for a minute atleast here they try to run you into cars and pedestrians
