Pikey Posted January 13, 2017 Share Little tidbit of advice: try to have a more neutral stance on the bike. Don't immediately have your breast bone smacking your seat the moment the trail goes down. If you're too far off the back of the bike, you make it difficult to control the front wheel. Just my 2c.Agree,but it is steeper than its looks,same as videos always look slower. But more than 80% of ppl would not even attempt it to ride that. Not bad for a first few attempts . we should of recorded some of the steeper stuff that managed to burp my wheel and re-seal,it's self immediately .And this jobby looking slime burped out my tyre ???????????????? Or I could of done a proper otb riding on the rim (scuse the pun) Edited January 13, 2017 by Pikey Andrew_Smith and AlanD 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bat Posted January 14, 2017 Share Also my current choice!Sent from my LG-D958 using TapatalkMet you at the shop when you did. Impressed that it sealed Pikey's burb tire so fast. Stans sealant would not have done that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pikey Posted January 14, 2017 Share Met you at the shop when you did. Impressed that it sealed Pikey's burb tire so fast. Stans sealant would not have done that.its done no wrong by me. But also think the wheels had something to do with . When they seal,it's pretty damn hard to brake that seal. But still is burped,made aloud whoosh like I had lost all the air but instantly re-sealed itself . And only lost a minimal amount of air. Edit: no wrong ????
