Re: I can't Wait To Try it!!!

when you lower the bike it makes the center of gravity that much harder to pick up. think about a lowered race car and then a monster truck. now if you only had front brakes on both of those which one do you think would flip over forward easier?? its the reason why dirtbikes are way easier to roll stoppies on. the center of mass is already slightly above the front tire, lower the center of mass and it takes more effort to lift it. ppl like to think that a low front and a high back makes easy stoppies but its not true, the only way that would be true would be to have a smaller front wheel which accomplishes putting the center of mass higher than the tire......i hope that makes sense.
