hi there i've just recently just upgraded from an old motobecane to a leader 725tr with 1806 carbon fork. i love doing wheelies, but im afraid of doing wheelies on my carbon fork. has any1 crack their carbon fork due to wheelies? thx alot

ive been doing all kinds of stupid stuff on my kestrel ems for about 2 years now...still strong...i hope...

I never did wheelies on a carbon fork, but i dropped down from curbs and generally beat it up for a while, and it held up fine

i've seen someone this week break their frame bunnyhopping.


just sayin.

i wouldn't do it.

The 806 is tough as hell. This was from a 25-30mph head on collision. The forks didn't snap, the steerer tube did. Usually carbon forks break at the crown.

Not that I would in any way suggest that doing tricks on a track bike makes any sense, but the fork isn't exactly fragile. It's made for road racing.
