getonyourbike: That makes sense. So maybe spend some time trying to get used to pedal wheeling with the left and vice versa then?
The reason I first started wondering about this in the first place was in relation to pedal wheeling/manualing, where the latter is more or less the former but without the pedalling to get it all going. For me it’s like two completely different things because pedal wheeling with the left leading feels really weird, and the same goes for manualling with the right. Again, not sure it actually affects me in any way though. Maybe it would somehow be easier to go from pedal wheelie to manual if I got used to leading with the same foot for both?
tmb457: Just to set the record straight: I can’t really manual properly at all, as in getting my weight back enough to find the balance point, so when I say manual it’s just about getting the wheel slightly in the air over small drops and such (or just for the hell of it, but again, not really a proper manual).
Anyway, these “manuals” are performed by pushing the bike away from me, without pedalling, like shown here: http://youtu.be/PiQGFX_RlW4?t=22m30s
