I've realised one of the things that has been annoying me about my Cotic for a while now: I can't really bunnyhop it.
Now, I ride BMX and can hop it about a metre give or take, and can 180 and 360 hop it too. I used to own an old aluminium Merlin, a DMR Trailstar, and a Kona full sus and I could hop those fine, obviously not as high as my BMX, but still not bad. But on my Cotic my bunnyhops are distinctly…meh.
I'm 5'8" tall, I ride a small, so 16" seat tube, 22.75" toptube, with 130mm Pikes, a 70mm zero rise stem and low rise 685mm bars.
What aspects of geometry/setup affect bunnyhops? What can I change to make my bike easier to hop?
