Revolver Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 No, a trials bike is a lot easier to do trials on. Stick with it, watch all the tutorial videos and practise and the technique will come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trialsiain Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 i found realising and pulling back brake helped me learn technuique well, like kick up but release and pull brake quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 yea ok but im struggling to even hold a wheelie on it That's strange because using pedal power is guaranteed to get the front wheel up. I don't suppose you fancy videoing your efforts so we can give suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HippY Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 how good is your balance? mine is really bad, it took me a while to learn it anyway, lean back as far where you can see the rear wheel under you, between your leg, your balance point should be around there. If you want to make the bike hop, lower your body, jump a little and pull your bars up. try that and practice a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 I'd just go and meet up with some local trials riders, best way to learn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
