Fun and good tutorial, I practicing the basic skill from your tutorial. I have no ideal about dream bike, I have a Giant ATX and practicing, interesting in BMX bike
Dream bike is old school BMX. CW Phaze 1, Hutch Pro Raider, Mongoose Supergoose - just about anything in the 44-16 camp. Currently building a 1985 Mongoose Californian because I had one in the early 1980s. Just waiting on the bars to arrive!
Watched lots of wheelie 'how to' vid's, been practicing over the last 2 yrs, your video make the best sense, wish I'd seen it earlier. Might have put me on the back wheel quicker. Thanks from Yorkshire Dales, Uk.😊
Stoked to hear you found this one helpful mate!! Thank you so much for sharing. Hope the weather is shaping up in UK for some beautiful rides. Cheers! -Mike
Practiced today and the seat and pedal positions were crucial for me. Need to dial in that gear. Used the finger over the break lever and it felt comfortable. Got further than ever previously. Will used the relax back in chair technique and report back.
RIght on!!! Love to hear about the progress & can't wait for the next report. The correct gear & cadence of pedaling can be tricky, but with patience & practice...you've got this!! Much love. -Mike
Well put together guys, keep up the great work, it's all about balance correct, everyhing in life revolves or is balance, if you dont have it, dont bother basically. If you have a blocked ear, that can throw your balance out believe it or not
I really like yall's channel. I actually have my dream bike. I love my Fuji Reveal. gonna go practice these skills from the Bunny Hop to the Wheelie. :)
Ustedes 2 son geniales. la segunda generacion del canal y definitivamente son mejores que el sujeto que lo inicio, gracias a él yo aprendí muchas cosas que practiqué.
so satisfied that you brought up the fact that chase's last name sounds like wheelie. all these skills videos are making it hard for me to pick what to work on! yet here i am saying i'd love to see your approach to faster cornering, especially in berms. my local pump track has a long berm with a bend the opposite direction in the middle that's eating all my speed -- throws me out and i don't know how to get back in for the second half. for a dream bike i mostly dream of picking out and buying all the components separately and building it up myself.
haha I always ask him if he calls his dad poppa willie...he doesn't find it as funny as I do. 😅 Right on!! Cornering is something we absolutely plan on covering - it's one of those skills that starts unlocking SO much.
Another great tutorial Mike!! You guys are helpin' the Joy Riders get more joy, so many Kudos!! I just upgraded my 20+ year old Specialized XC Comp 26er to a Giant Stance 29er, so groovin' on that for bike action. Dream bike currently would be getting a Dirt Jumper like you guys are sporting for local Erie Pump Track, or maybe even a friendly BMX bike. Thanks again for spreadin' the JOY guys!!
Dude!! Thank you so much. That's our main goal & is so dang fulfilling reading comments of people having that aha moment & starting to execute on the skill!! Dude that new bike sounds sick!! A BMX bike is the move in my opinion - it's a more humbling platform but if you take it slow the skills you'll develop there translate to all bikes so well & quick.
@@JoyOfBike I think a BMX would be more "flickable" for mastering skills like hops, wheelies, manuals, jumps, etc and transfer the skills to the 29er. Hey, who doesn't want to expand their quiver, right!!
Maybe a mid to late 80s Hutch Trickstar. Only got to ride one once and it was nice. Love the white and gold one they made. Currently have my original 88 haro master and a couple 87 schwinn predators and an 86 predator.
Could you please say a little more about how you’re breaking while keeping the wheelie up? Are you kind of dragging the rear break lightly the whole time and or just feathering it here and there? I’ve been practicing diligently for a couple of months but can’t find that sweet balance point. I’m either not getting the front wheel high enough or looping out when I grab a lot of break to set the wheel back down. Thanks for your video and help.
Sure thing!! This is honestly what I’ve struggled with the most, too. I’ve learned that keeping just a LITTLE drag on the brake at all times really helps, then using little taps to bring the front end down when necessary has been the key. The balance point will come pretty easily once you dial in your braking!
Great video! Plz make more, i never thought i could wheelie, will now learn how. Excellent tutorial, thx. Dream bike: Lunacycle X2.5 eMtb -J. Payson, AZ
It's better to stay seated when poppin up? Other videos say to lean over handle bars then lean straight back while pedaling, then sit down when popped up
Was I just not paying attention? It seems like you just told me to pick a good gear, pedal the bike, balance. If it’s that simple then why aren’t I wheelie-ing all the time on accident?
that's a good trick in most areas! i've noticed a lot of difference using it on skinnies and berms, and it's something i always point out to the kids in youth mountain biking lessons.

I have an SE Floval Flyer I bought with paper route money in 1983 I'll be 55 next month, time to learn to wheelie the floval!
DUDE!!! No kidding. That's a BAD ASS bike. Never get rid of that thing!!

I have looked so so many tutorials but this one helped 90% more than any other one.
We like those odds!! Thanks for sharing.

😲 Amazing,, i Finally able to balance my wheelie By following tips From this video
RAD!!! We love to hear it.

@@JoyOfBike I also find it funny and hadn't thought of that one! maybe if you know his dad well YOU could call him poppa willie
These series are awesome.
Good stuff! Something that really improved my wheelie is, Keep looking ahead. Not down at your front wheel.
Yes!! This is solid advice.
-Mike
My dream bike is a SB140lr. Great video!
That dream is easily achieved
Dream bike, late 80’s early 90’s Ibis full rigid. Like the Mt trails or the SS. Thanks!
Nice vid. My favorite bike is “the next one”. Just love looking at bikes and thinking about them, they’re just so cool.
Thanks for wheelie advice. My favorite dream bike is the Reeb SST. I love coffee too.
Dream bike is a Sunday dark wave or S&M credence. Would love to see a dirt jump tutorial. Loving these tutorials videos. Thank you!
great tutorial, will try soon!
Let us know how you go!

The Trek Marlin with 29 inch wheels is my dream bicycle. I doughnut have one but saw someone do a wheelie video on one so I like it.
rad!!
I can but I can't even pedal when I'm up I'm soo weak 😢😢😢
Maybe a mid to late 80s Hutch Trickstar. Only got to ride one once and it was nice. Love the white and gold one they made. Currently have my original 88 haro master and a couple 87 schwinn predators and an 86 predator.
Fantastic info.
My dream bike is the one I have below
"2021 Colour Plum, Specialized Status 160 Travel Mullet Enduro Mountain bike."
Thanks dude's.

My dream bike is a Trek Fuel Exe. I like the idea of having just a bit of assistance while still keeping it light and playful.
Another amazing tutorial ❤❤❤❤ amazing video..... Thanks a lot for the effort the three of you take sharing your knowledge and skills ❤
Great video! Plz make more, i never thought i could wheelie, will now learn how. Excellent tutorial, thx. Dream bike: Lunacycle X2.5 eMtb -J. Payson, AZ
Dude heck yes!!! Hope it helps. Much love!!
Thank you
Ill practice everyday..😄
That's the way to be!
What if you have to backpedal to rear brake? Is it still a bike you can wheelie on?
It's better to stay seated when poppin up? Other videos say to lean over handle bars then lean straight back while pedaling, then sit down when popped up
Dream bike is Reeb SST coil chassis w/ 600 lb spring.
Crust Evasion Trail 140 be cause step thru frames are rad (and I have little legs)
20" VINTAGE LOWRIDER 72 SPOKE STEEL BICYCLE 545-3 IN GOLD 😁
I’d love to see anyone wheelie that whip! 😂
so my bike is VERY heavy, does this make any difference?
Should rear suspension be locked for praticing whellie? Or it doesn't matter?
I’d say ride it however feels comfortable to you in a regular setting!
Specialized P3 or a Santa Cruz Jackal or an Inspired Hex.
Good teachers my dream bike is downhill mountain mtb
Let's fucking go! Wheelie time!
what type of bike is that blue bike
I'm riding a commencal TR & chase is riding a Yeti SB160
@@JoyOfBike thanks
My dream bike is a Transition Carbon
Oh hell yea!!!
-Mike
My dream bike is a Trek marlin 7
rad!!
HEY
Bros shoes match the bike. Stick detail right there.
Devil is in the details!! haha.
I want a trial bike
They're so much fun!!
In a way, these people are buying you, not just wheelies
As long as that means we have more homies to ride bikes with, I'm into it!
-Mike
😂
Was I just not paying attention? It seems like you just told me to pick a good gear, pedal the bike, balance. If it’s that simple then why aren’t I wheelie-ing all the time on accident?
Yeah, maybe you weren't paying attention because they covered a lot more than that and in a lot more detail than you're implying.
Don't act dumb.
Long hair bro only does one wheelie the entire video
Any tips to help teach kids? Say 10 year olds….
For wheelies specifically or just skills in general?
@@JoyOfBike Both I guess but wheelies too.
Why does it take 2 men to explain this? 😂😂😂😂
You're right...we should've had a third, thanks for the feedback!
@@JoyOfBike your right actually. One to adjust the seat, one to push the pedal and one to lift the bars 😂😂😂
2 different point of views and fun, entertaining conversations

Yes!! This is a great thing to focus on, in almost all aspects of riding.
