im pretty sure i know the answer to this one but just makin sure [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

Huh????

 

first, what the hell is the question?

If you are talking about the spring tension, and the relationship between that and wheelies, a soft spring will wheelie better as the rear will squat and bite lifting the front end. A stiff spring with let it spin the tires, a little more...

 

ya, if your talking abuot how to set up your spring tension so you can do wheelies the best..then a softer spring will help you to lift the front end up easier....That is IF the question was that.

 

I think only he know what the question was!

 

make it a hardtail and it will wheelie great! no suspension means no power wasted compressing the back suspension.

 

OK, so which one is it, hard or soft for wheelies, we've got two different answers and inquiring minds want to know?

 

SOFT!

 

no,its not soft..a firmer spring tension on the rear shock will make it wheelie easier.with a soft spring the bike squats when you hit the gas,a firm spring doesnt squat,meaning the front end will come up way easier..

 

thats what i was thinking, if its soft, than the force you use to pull back with just gets absorbed by the shock, i have tested both ways, and i can wheelie eassier with the spring hard, as opposed to soft
