Default wheelie bars

whats the chance you can get one of those wheelie bars for the back of your bike? had a bad experience years ago, just started riding again and really wanna get this down, i ride alone alot and dont have my buddies around to help pick me up if i go down or over, i keep telling myself get over the paranoya of the front end coming up, maybe i should just bite the bullet and crank it up....any suggestions.

cover the rear brake, syc yourself out, pretend your going to crack the throttle wide f in open and check yourself to see where your foot is. my rear brake is allways covered even tho i use it mabey .5 % of the time. look at the rear brake as a built in wheelie bar.

They are also known as 12 O'clock bars - most people fabricate their own. Check some of the stunting sites and you can get some ideas and other sources.

I also saw this on TV a while back... if you can find someone to sell you one... http://www.ononewheel.com/rrw-article.php Or go take the class

evil i think your right, cover the rear brake and get my nuts back, i went over backwards years ago and it hurt.....trying to refrain from that happening again im just a little paranoyed, cant afford to be out of work or any of that b.s. again, it wascool when you lived home with mom and dad, now that you have a mortgage it changes your thinkinga little, ill just have to work on it.....thanks for the incentive!!!!
