Re: 135 and 150 feet coaster
how do you get it to the right balance. is it a matter of lifting and then using the rear brake to hold the height smoothly.
Also, so you think you need Disc brakes for smooth coasters/endos, or are V brakes enough.
my bike has V brakes with good pads, and they stop hard, but also smooth and progresive.

Re: 135 and 150 feet coaster
yo never get bike with disk brakes..
They are to good for a bike and u will flip an endo in a sec..
v brake is the best!!!
And my coasters..i do theme like no1 else...
i go as fast as i could and at the line i have to start the coaster so i could see how far i did it..i just pick it up,and put my *** all the way on the bottom of the seat and lean back and try not to press the brakes alot..

not true, i know a dude with disc brakes, says they are ALOR smoother.
V-brakes are MORE than enough though. and yes, you rock the wheelie behind BP and use the rear brake to hold it up, i like to pulse my rear brake.

Yea I'd rather have disc brakes anyway just because I like the brakes to lock the breaks with a little bit of break.
