Wheelie King!!

The guys in the video can go for miles like that.. It was just edited like that to make a good video.. I was there during all the filming.


I'll ride these for about 1/2 mile at this height.

Can also ride these for a good distance...

It is possible on anything with a rear brake.

Nags.. thats a dirtbike, the weight porportion is alot different than a pedal bike. i can ride alot farther and higher on my dirtbike then i can on my mountain bike, that doesnt go along with the mountain bike theme...

I can do the same thing on a bmx bike.

Don't try to compare bikes with combustion engines to pedal bikes. There are way too many variables in that. The simple momentum of the engine and tranny will keep you up there for longer. The weight distribution is way different than a pedal bike. Tire size is also different, altho that probably favors the pedal bike.

When jammin james came out and insulted my dirt bike which was recently stolen, and i'm still payin off the bike, that was just being a jackass.

Simply put Jammin James is a jackass for responding in such a nasty manner. People were just trying to explain that its not likely you could actually hold a wheelie at that angle on a pedal bike.

i agree the thread should be closed.

i stand by shartley as i know him to be very well educated and he uses facts and physics to back up what he says.

He used facts and physics but the fact is that you can hit that point without flipping over IF you use a back brake.

Can you ride the wheelie like that for a sustained amount of time? No, but you CAN hit that point.

Jammin James...

You got some chicken legs.
