Stoppie School Looks Wheelie Cool!
As motorcyclists, we’ve all had that heart sickening, that stomach dropping moment when you accidentally lock up the front brake a little too much and the bike starts to pitch entirely too much forward. You don’t know what to do in that moment. Do you put your legs out, hold onto the bike, jump ship and hope for the best? And really, what you do all depends on how drastic, or how screwed you actually are.
The easiest thing to do is obviously let go of the front brake and hope you come down easy enough that you don’t bounce yourself off. But what about those of us that want to learn how to pull a stoppie? Or those that want to know what to do in case that issue arises on the street? Well, thanks to a UK based company called Stunt Asylum, we have an answer.
This bizarre contraption is essentially a stoppie school. It attaches to your bike and allows you to get the bike a bit vertical without the worry of the bike sloshing around and tossing you over the handle bars. It’s fairly ingenious in its design and it definitely has the possibility to help inexperienced riders deal with a very dangerous situation.
