bro, think about it. it is totally possible. start the treadmill, crank a bit to get balance, then pop it up. its just like in a parking lot, but the momentum never ends... an infinity roll if you will.


Not... really... to be honest. At all.

You wont have ANY momentum if you are on the bike on the treadmill. You arn't actually moving anywhere, just the wheels going round. Think about it.

The wheels have momentum but you dont.

ive done nose-wheelies with a sk8board on a treadmill b4, and worked out great. never thought of trying hang-5s on one tho. i MUST try it!!! youd have to have the treadmill totally LEVEL tho to do it or u would just end up rolling backwards off of it. maybe even have it tilted slightly forward!?

those are my famous "mystery bars". i traded this one guy my Hiros for these, and still love them. they have upsweep, backsweep and fluting inside. if anyone would like to take a guess i'd be very interested to find out what they are my da*n self

those bars look like suelos..
man this bike is very nice! i really like the stripe on your tires! but maybe the nankai's driver will not like the white paint. i also painted mine but i only painted the shell of it so the paint won't get into the hub.. post a pic later when it's finished!
nice ride! :beer:

Man, that is probably the best looking bike i have ever seen, apart from the missing cranks. Looks so clean and neat.

thanks bedbod
i like it too!

since posting the pics, I felt I needed to disclose a bit more about the bike.  there were two issues with the frame worth noting.  the paint was extremely poor in the rear triangle. lots of chips, and a big spot on one of the dropouts with no paint.  also the brake posts were very misaligned. for me, these two things were trivial; i plan on removing the posts and guide, and afterwords powdercoating it; fixing the paint issue. still, not everyone will necessarilly be so laid back about QC issues such as these. My hope is that these issues have already been addressed and future errors minimized.

cheers

Dojo, ive just stripped the paint from mine and there is alot of primer/filler on the rear triangle/drop outs but a bit of elbow grease & some wet & dry and its going (gradually) the Tubes just have a few slight imperfections which might explain the premature loss of paint.

PS: Thats a Coalition post.
