How to Master the Art of Mountain Bike Wheelies: Tips and Techniques for Beginners
To wheelie on a mountain bike, start in a low gear and pedal hard while pulling up on the handlebars. Lean back as your front wheel rises and continue to pedal to maintain balance. Finding the sweet spot of balance while slightly adjusting your body weight will help you hold the wheelie. Practice in an open area and gradually develop control to ride a longer wheelie. It’s important to wear protective gear and start slow to avoid injury.
