An Apology....
 

is required.
Was going to PM this person, but then thought, Adz, Toby and Tim wouldnt see it.

MR GHOSTIE, you owe me an apology, for making me sound like i was mental. Making me even doubt myself, and making me even think i had invented a contraption in my own head.

:LOL :LOL

Re: An Apology....
 

Im more pleased i didnt dream that device up :LOL

Im sure odair had one, cos i remember you asking why it kept spinning, and crazy eyes said it had a motor, as ya could hear it buzz? Who knows, maybe Glyn or alstar remember?

Re: An Apology....
 

The learntowheelie site and the gyro thing is Jerry Jones though not Domokos, but domokos rocks, I have a video of him wheelying around the MX track, that was awesome and thats partly what got me into wheelying my supermoto around.

I'm a bit dissapointed to learn that jerry jones has this gyro thing on that supposedly makes wheelying easy, I don't understand how it works or if it really helps much, would be interesting to see if its true...

Re: An Apology....
 

i never said the learn to wheelie was domokos!!!!

Its something to do with the gyroscopic effect. The brazilians seperate the pads from the disc so it spins for longer. I tried it on my pit bike, but the way i looked at it was, if i was doing a show etc, would it look good getting off my bike to kick the calipers every time i wanna do a wheelie after a stoppie?

Re: An Apology....
 

lol i'm sure that'd look great to the crowds ;)

Personally I think it better to just learn to do em without any tricks or devices... :)

Some good old fashioned skill and hard work, patience and effort :YEAH oh and some body armour :laughing

Re: An Apology....
 

i moved my pads back and got going as fast as i could in first then yanked up a wheelie and then slowed it down to do some circles ,it was a very strange feeling when i turned the wheel but i don't think it makes it easier i think it is just for looks

Re: An Apology....
 

i moved them back on my pit bike, then i had to brake hard, and the lever came to the bar, then the front brake grabbed hard. Then i never done it again LOL

Re: An Apology....
 

So, in laymens terms, what does this do?

Just spin your front wheel to create a gyroscopic force? :S

Re: An Apology....
 

The gyroscopic effect helps keep the bike from falling over sideways.
Sme way that when you ride fast in a straight line, the bike's harder to lay into a corner.

Re: An Apology....
 

Jumping jake semtex used one for the longest wheelie attempt a few years ago.
