Tricks
We have decided to tell how to do a few simple tricks to help get you started.
How to pop a WHEELIE:
This is an easy trick because all you have to do is pull up on the handlebars, so your front wheel lifts up into the air. It might use some strength, and is easier to do standing up on your pedals. Do not lift up the front wheel too high, or you might fall off backwards.
How to RIDE A WHEELIE:
This trick is a little harder to do. First, pop a wheelie. Then pedal while the front wheel is still in the air. Do not expect to do it right away.
How to BUNNYHOP:
Pressing down on the front bars, lift up the front wheel and jump off of the pedals. This might take some effort and work. Note: When you jump off of the pedals, make sure you land back on them.
How to do an ENDO:
Approach a curb at a slow pace. When you hit the curb, lean forward on the handlebars and the back wheel should lift up. If there are no curbs, hit the front brakes and lean forward. When we say slow, we mean slow, so you don’t flip over your handlebars. If there is no curb and you don’t have front brakes, stick your toe between the tire and the fork.
Remember: It is important to wear a bike helmet every time you ride your bike!
