Jack Ellis , that's awesome! So glad your Troy is working well for you.

Ahh Ren & Stimpy!

no shit huh. I had a few really nice bmx style bikes myself. A haro, a g.t. (which we were so young we really didn't know what G.T. even stood for. So we would joke and say it stood for "girl's t!+! €$" because you had to say something. LoL. I know now It stands for Grand Tour. I also had a legit "BMX" However my absolute favorite 20 inch bike I rode for years was a Mongoose I customized. (long before mongoose went full big box store lamo n sold out to Walmart n ToysRus) I just always remember the relationship I had with that particular bike. Even know I had 15-20 others that were lighter (my elf) and much more expensive (my specialized probably highest retail price I paid for a 20 in) But my Goose, just was rock solid! Dependable, predictable, and not real flashy. So I could set it down at the track and not be so stressed out about it getting stolen. Because their were at lease 10-15 other bikes that were much more likely to disappear before mine. I still love and prefer a 20 inch bmx when it's built right! And I'm 6'. I mean to ride out front n bunny hop my kids wagon or something. Their so much lighter, easier to manipulate, lower to the ground, less moving parts to fail and just so much more responsive then their much bigger brothers... The mountain bike. But obviously if I'm going any further then the front yard, I grab my trek! The shox, the gears, the larger tires, they just tear through the woods around here. I have even come to like the stupid handlebar bell that my bike shop owner talked me into. It let's my kids and other riders know exactly where I am on the trail. Great for the kids too. They get a lil far ahead sometimes and theirs 1 or 2 lil nasty cliffs that will dump u in the creek if u don't slow down b4 the turn. But biking is awsome. A great family activitie. Can't wait to get out this season with some more aggressive riders and see how far some of these ladies n gents will push it. Around here, Phila. The opportunity is endless. I have seen guys do down hills that I wouldn't try to walk down yet. ;-) but I have also seen a bunch of ppl show up in jerseys n shades wit 2 and 3 water bottles and protein bars, just to find out they don't intend to pass 3rd gear. Or go anywhere near a single track. :-0 Reguardless, I have fun every time I'm out. So do my kids. One popular spot I ride is penny pack park. Theirs a few nice single tracks bak there still. On the agenda this season though is *wissahickin spelled wrong. And theirs a high school near me that has a few events a year in the woods behind it. I think it's Oxford Valley h.s. Supposed to be some of the most intense trails in the area. Looking forward to that one. Then my buddy has some land (and a backhoe) that we are going to carve a few banks, down hills and jumps into. Should be fun. Well you guys can obviously tell how excited I am to get out there. If u live near me n just dealt with old man winter, I'm sure u feel the same. Be safe out there and don't forget to take a kid, nephew, neighbor out with ya a few times this season. Cause that's what it's all about! Passing on an epic, beautiful sport to someone else, so they can do the same.

Yes

Jesus Narez Depends on your budget and what kind of trails you are looking to ride.

Push your feet back and scoop the pedals up.

I'm assuming you know now, but you angle you're feet at a 45 degree angle and push backwards on the pedals

5AMM0608 In this video Mark is using Clipless Mountain Bike peddles, but these techniques can be done with a good pair of BMX Style flat pedals as well. www.performancebike.com/bikes/SubCategory_10052_10551_400264_-1_400009_400048

Performance Bicycle HI ..thank you for replying back. Can you please explain the difference between CLIP pedals and CLIPLESS pedals.

5AMM0608 Cycling racing pedals used to be composed of a traditional pedal platform, with an attached “toe clip” that, combined with a strap, would hold a rider’s foot in place for greater efficiency. When the first clipless pedals were introduced, they were noted for being able to hold the rider’s foot on the pedal without a toe clip. Hence, clipless pedals.

whoa that pedal is more expensive than my bike.

Stickymicky25 He is using clipless. Using clipless for hopping is like using cheat codes...which is why I like it. It is possible to hope with flats. The key is pointing your toes down a bit and dragging your feet straight back. This gives you kind of a pressure fit between the pedals and the bars (like doing a chimney when climbing) and allows you to hop. I can get okay height on a stationary bunny hop, but clipless takes the thinking out of it and you just jump.

calvin2032 I've never ridden with clips my entire life,and I'm 36! Once you learn how to hop,your all good! Finding videos with guys who don't use clips to hop,is starting to look like finding Bigfoot!! LOL!! I'm scared to clip in!!LOL

im2tall1 I prefer being clipped in on the down. Foot is always in the right position and not going to get bounced off over rougher terrain. Not good for learning wheelies though.

Hey YxTu, it's a Devinci Dexter. We no longer carry the Dexter, but we do have a full line of Devincis in stock now. Check out the Spartan! It's just like this bike.

He is outside not in a studio

leaves are not moving,that is imposible

He is outside

+SRINIVASULU A this can be done on almost any bike... although there are more than a few it probably shouldn't be done on.

Easily

bmx bikes can bunny hop...i'm sure it will work with a hardtail
