No offense but are you retarded??
I had to check your profile to make sure you weren't a 16 year old bulgarian...your english is beyond horrible.
Do you have any idea what would happen when you slammed that "bar" hard??
Find a vid on youtube of someone trying to scrape a 10 o'clock bar..that should erase any doubt of how bad of an idea this is.

The idea at first sounds good...who really wants to flip stoppies...
But once you get into the physics of it I'd rather just flip a stoppie at least you kind of know what's going to happen.
If you always gently roll onto the bar/roller you wouldn't have a problem (then again if you could you wouldn't need it)
Slamming on to the bar would be like throwing a stick in a bicycles front wheel...plus you can't steer the stoppie or even make adjustments with out rocking the bar/roller which I don't even want to think about.
Your best bet is to start slow, use cones to mark out distance and just work on being consistent. Distance will come and so will the wrecks....

Re: FRONT WHEELIE BARS?!! Please read this and respond what your thoughts was..
Im no stunthero.... and ive thought about stoppies alot (mainly the fact i cant do them because my forks leak like the exxon valdez), so ive got oily rocks for brake pads.
But when you ride a wheelie. you've got two variables. Throttle to dip it back further. and brake to bring it down. On a stoppie, youve only got brake. It's kinda the same idea as riding a wheelie without using the brakes. engine brake/throttle will bring the front end up/down just like most input/less input on the front brakes will raise or lower the rear tire. but theres no checking yourself.
It seems like the best idea for stoppies is to just start small, and keep working. I use parking-spot lines. Pick one, and pick it up there evrytime, and try to roll them consistantly the same distance each time, and get further and further as you go.
