What where standing platforms by the seat tube used for? Help with decades?


I noticed basically all frames nowdays don’t have this mod anymore?
Did it help with any tricks or open up any tricks you can only do with a standing platform? ?
If you had this thing would it make quad decades any easier?
Any videos of people using it to its power?

Mostly they were used for tricks like a frame stand.

well, if you check out oldschool videos you will see a lot of standing on the toptube tricks..

in the late 90's they started to ditch the platform design. it was just extra weight and you didn't actually need them

When you think of decades, you think of CHASE. He still uses a frame with a platform.
