wheelies are my speciality lol
Same here, back when i used to ride years ago, i used to drop the skewer on my front wheel, disconnect my m600 V brake and pop the wheel up, with a mate to catch it and wheelie along with no front wheel:d

Good balance and good rear brake control, and steady pedeling.
Although i have friends that can wheelie for miles without and brakes lol

Good balance, well that's me screwed, as soon as I lean back a little gravity pulls my fat **** off the seat, testicles + moving wheel =:cry: lol

You need to work out where the balance point is, then use your body weight to slightly tip over the balance point, then before you flip you 'dab' the rear brake to bring you back to the balance point, its a tricky one to master but not overly hard.
Once youve figured out where your balance point is and dialled in your rear brake control its easy, after that you have coasters, one or no footers, and alsorts of variations:d

Ya might be on there lol
Although im much better with V brakes, vastly prefer them to discs, and i need to come for a test ride on your norco if youre serious about selling, might have the funds in the next couple of weeks:d
