Does height matter in a rolling long endo?¿ - Bicycle Stunters

Does height matter in a rolling long endo? Because When i have my seat up high to practice coasters i cant do as high rolling endos.

balance point is relative to center of gravity.

if your seat is super low, but your only 1 inch from flipping, you'll be rolling a long endo.

if your seat is super high, and your 1 inch from flipping, you'd be rolling the same distance, if not more, than with your seat down low.

Yeah but i cant get the rear wheel up as high when my seat is high. Plus it looks cooler when your back wheel is high even if you dont go as far

Stuntone0one · 08-08-2006, 10:30 PM

distance between the grouind and your rear wheel is irrelavent.

distance of the center of gravity is what's important.

if your seat is up higher, it just chances the balance point. even if the rear wheel isn't super high off the ground, if your at BP, you can still roll just as long as if your seat was down. and perhaps longer, as you don't need to waste as much speed getting to balance point.

it just differnt man, you'll get used to it, give it time.

ok. cuz i always think i am gonna loop it. lol

Stuntone0one · 08-08-2006, 10:55 PM

yes it's easier to loop with a lower seat, just gotta learn to use less brake.

you'll get used to it.

(Turbo) · 08-08-2006, 10:56 PM

Its easer to loop it with a lower seat. i thought it is easer to loop it with a higher one....well to me it is...

Stuntone0one · 08-08-2006, 11:07 PM

sorry, i'm doing like 30 things right now, that was a typo.

(Turbo) · 08-08-2006, 11:08 PM

oh lol ok

Rolling endos were some fun shit.

Turbo, you're gonna loop. Be prepared for it.

Flipping sucks, espically when you do it as fast as I was going for endos. I ran my seat high so I could get to the balance point right away. With the seat mounted lower, I could get the rear tire higher up, but by time I got the balance point I would lose over 1/2 my speep.

Back when I rode, I averaged 80 to 85ft rolling, and on the last day I did bmx bikes, I was hitting over 120, then my crank broke and I quit.
