Only on Fridays, sadly.

Come back and hang-out!

do i have to be a regular poster to +1 the risers for wheelies?

i just switched to risers last week (giving them a try, and so far loving them for urban riding) and the temptation to try wheelies again was too much - this afternoon i definitely rode the longest wheelie of my life (not very long at all, mind you) down my street as pedestrians gawked (laughed) at me.

then i nearly fell off backwards and ruined the look of the whole thing. d'oh!

+7

This thread is worthless without VIDEOS!

?? What odd thing is going on in that picture?

Jesus... Have any of you ever been to Brooklyn? There are 12-year-old kids who will wheelie their ****ty BMX bikes from Atlantic to Flushing - about 60 times further than Mr. Youtube there.

The colder it gets, the more fun it becomes....

Speed bump followed by parallel grate drain = whew, I made it over that bump OK, damn, here comes my doom, ahhhhhhh!!!!!

No one else noticed jacobpriest switched bikes?

Kyle, is that wheelie-ninjutsu you're doing in that 3rd pic? If not, could we HAVE some wheelie-ninjutsu?

Anyone else seen the video with this guy talking about being the wheelier master? He rides his bike without a front wheel, and can ride them no hands forever.

+1 to the packs of wheelie kids in the ghetto. i see packs of like 8 kids all wheelieing down the middle of the street from time to time. i swear some of them never put their front wheel down.

I think it's a kid thing I could wheelie forever when I was like 8, now I'm lucky if I can make it across the intersection. Ok MTB, SS/track bike, road/cross...now wheelie machine :lol:

I see it all of the time too and their bikes are always way too small for them as well.

i knew a kid in brooklyn that would intentionally losen his front wheel and when he started the wheelie his front wheel would fly off and he would just wheelie forever.

is it creepy if i want to set this as my desktop image at work?

yes, but good creepy.

Some BMX kids totally made fun of me and ryand last night for doing wheelies.

um... you mean trying to do wheelies?

i want juvi's permission to be a creep before i post that on the desktop.

if he says yes, i'm gonna get the funniest looks when people swing by my cube.

Yeah, trying... *Hangs head in shame*

Your wife is right. Although, it could just be because proportionately the same size looks bigger on a smaller frame.

Kind of like how mine looks HUGE in little kids' hands.

I didn't know Mark Foley posted here.
