*facepalm* How did you come to that conclusion, detective mike-dyson?

EDIT: I don't, only 'cause I like to hear my Pro2's BZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

He's right. The faster it goes the less control you have on the front. That's why all bmxers are so gay about rotational weight and foldable tyres.

But pedalling endos are cool.

more rotating wieght increases the gyroscopic effect of the wheel. this makes it harder to turn and flick the bike.

thats why bmxer's like low rotating weight, it makes the bike easier to flick and change direction not that it makes manuals easier

a heavier wheel would be harder to change direction on in a manual so a heavy front wheel is not cool if you like tech manual lines.

however if you just want to go straight a heavy wheel makes the bike harder to topple and makes the manual /stoppy straighter/harder to tip over

physics lesson over

i dont scrub the redundant brake when manualling or stoppying
