aener Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 He did it a long time before the fixie, and still does it now having moved on from it. It'll come in handy every so often if you ride very technical places or competitions. Ben Slinger is very good at riding wrong footed to get out of sticky situations. If you just ride street then it won't really help you with anything to be honest, other than earning peoples' respect when you can ride with either foot forward! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 It was all part of Chris' Trial Noir concept. It made things harder by doing things wrong foot forward, not covering your brakes, only bunny hoping and no pedaling up things bla de bla de bla. As Flipp says, it earns you a little bit of respect if you're able to do it riding street as its not the easiest things to do and make it look good. I think Chris does it more to challenge himself more than anything though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
