Re: Sprocket for slow stuff?

Once again you don't need gears. They don't make you go slow. They make it easier to get your bike up, and allow you to go 2-3 mph slower without stalling the bike. To do slow wheelies you: 1 turn up the idle, 2 pop the front end up quick from <5 mph, 3 ride the wheelie behind the balance point to slow down to a crawl, 4 use only the rear brake to regulate the hight of the wheelie (blip the throttle if it starts comming down).
