[Closed] Can you trackstand?

Pffft he should be doing that with very tight SPDs.

Pansy - he should be doing it on a unicycle.

Good job he had lycra on.

Easier to find him if he falls 😉

You should see the video of him when he sobers up and they tell him what he did at yesterdays aprés ski party 🙂

Ponce; he wants to try trackstanding on the Old St roundabout in rush-hour...

but why, to what end?

Cos he can?

Whenever I see people doing stuff like this, I can't help thinking; 'you're a bit of a knob, and if it went wrong, you'd just be a dead knob...'

it's fake, the shadows are all wrong. Superimposed shi*

trackstand is very useful and rather easy, even with SPD's I find it no harder than on flats.

Why?

He's not trackstanding, he's using his left foot on the front wheel - it's nowhere near his pedal...

Smee - I suppose it was just a vital skill I learned from bike trials days, but a good balance on a bike is useful (actually especially with SPD's) because you dont have to jump off the bike and unclip every time somebody stops in front of you on a trail, or in front of traffic lights.

i can...........for bout 5 seconds......

Can you trackstand?

try turning the front wheel about 45 degree angle and only using front brake to stand

this sort of thing.

Then try it no-handed.

On a cliff.

😯

easy can do it for 3mins but get bored...

Whilst it is impressive, it is surely one of the most pointless excercises I have seen anyone do on a bike
