Wheelies Made SIMPLE - 3 Easy Steps!!

Whether want to learn the wheelie to impress your friends or just get the front wheel up & over rocks or roots on the trail, after watching this video you'll have better wheelies in one session!

For years doing wheelies seemed impossible to me, even though I could manual as far as I wanted to...after spending some time watching people who were really good at this skill I realized I was approaching it all wrong! I was forcing my body weight around, not using leverage in my crank arms, or using my brakes to help lock manage the balance point. In this video we cover common mistakes to avoid while we deconstruct the wheelie so it's easy to understand, the skills are straightforward to apply, & practice!

Although mastering the wheelie takes a fair bit of practice, applying the fundamentals we cover in this tutorial will take this skill from feeling out of reach, or downright impossible to approachable, practicable, & before you know it you'll be rollin' down the street on the rear wheel with ease.

What's your goal wheelie length?! Happy Practicing amigos!

So after learning the wheelie and manual from you guys, I finally moved on to riding a unicycle. Thanks guys 😂

Dream bike is old school BMX. CW Phaze 1, Hutch Pro Raider, Mongoose Supergoose - just about anything in the 44-16 camp. Currently building a 1985 Mongoose Californian because I had one in the early 1980s. Just waiting on the bars to arrive!

Watched lots of wheelie 'how to' vid's, been practicing over the last 2 yrs, your video make the best sense, wish I'd seen it earlier. Might have put me on the back wheel quicker.
Thanks from Yorkshire Dales, Uk.😊

Gonna practice today! Nice instructions! Fav bike…. My Salsa Spearfish. Not sexy but it’s mine so I ride it!

[gavanbrowne]

I’ve been wheeling for the last 3 years which I started on my 60th birthday but still can’t go much more than 100m.
Hardest thing for me is side to side balance but recently lowered my seat a bit which I’ve found gave me more knee control.
However from your video my biggest take away is the office chair analogy on the pull up.
Great stuff thanks guys

My Dream bike.... My Raleigh Team USA! You never forget your first! Miss that old bike.

I really like yall's channel. I actually have my dream bike. I love my Fuji Reveal. gonna go practice these skills from the Bunny Hop to the Wheelie. :)

[Cooper_VR]

I have looked so so many tutorials but this one helped 90% more than any other one.

I have an SE Floval Flyer I bought with paper route money in 1983 I'll be 55 next month, time to learn to wheelie the floval!

[vagahsieh]

Fun and good tutorial, I practicing the basic skill from your tutorial.
I have no ideal about dream bike, I have a Giant ATX and practicing, interesting in BMX bike

Good stuff! Something that really improved my wheelie is, Keep looking ahead. Not down at your front wheel.

[misterhaan]

so satisfied that you brought up the fact that chase's last name sounds like wheelie. all these skills videos are making it hard for me to pick what to work on! yet here i am saying i'd love to see your approach to faster cornering, especially in berms. my local pump track has a long berm with a bend the opposite direction in the middle that's eating all my speed -- throws me out and i don't know how to get back in for the second half. for a dream bike i mostly dream of picking out and buying all the components separately and building it up myself.

[mikegeurin]

Thanks for wheelie advice. My favorite dream bike is the Reeb SST. I love coffee too.

[Oceankingking-hlqm]

Well put together guys, keep up the great work, it's all about balance correct, everyhing in life revolves or is balance, if you dont have it, dont bother basically. If you have a blocked ear, that can throw your balance out believe it or not

[daviddennis]

Dream bike is a Sunday dark wave or S&M credence. Would love to see a dirt jump tutorial. Loving these tutorials videos. Thank you!

[claskull]

I guys your are top one!!! So clear and useful

[captainyetimtb]

My dream bike is a SB140lr. Great video!

[shaedaniels]

Practiced today and the seat and pedal positions were crucial for me. Need to dial in that gear. Used the finger over the break lever and it felt comfortable. Got further than ever previously. Will used the relax back in chair technique and report back.

My dream bike is a Trek Fuel Exe. I like the idea of having just a bit of assistance while still keeping it light and playful.
