I have a cheapie ridged wheelie bar on the bike now, and it works ok. But if I raise it any… even ½ inch off the ground when it hits the bike gets unstable. So I have it barely touching the ground. Which is hurting weight transfer and traction. Anyone have any cheap DIY solutions to a spring loaded bar?
If you watch the 2 quickest guys race several times at the end of this video (17 min mark) you can see a spring loaded wheelie bar. That bike leaves HARD! Pretty much mopped up the competition aside from the all-out alky bike at the end. Looks like the wheels touch but allow the bike to stay stable because the wheelie bars don’t slam into the ground with a ton of force. There was no comparison off the launch. That is what I’m looking for! Believe this was the go power sports guys. Anyway. Any simple ideas appreciated!
Thanks
