I could do like 3-5 pedals length of wheelie hahaha i'm luck to get 3 tbh i also remembered a few progressions... - try to lift your fr wheel with just 1 pedal stroke and do this thousand of times literally until it feels natural - add another pedal stroke - take note, just 1! repeat until it feels natural - in a gradual uphill, add another pedal stroke. this time, cycle through 1, 2, 3 pedal strokes and do this thousands of times the key to any skill is repetitions... the videos that we see is a product of thousands of hours of practice and reps. unless one is really 'gifted'

I can do about 2 or 3 pedal strokes on a 32 x 23(ish) gearing. Then it's either the front falls (most of the time) or I overspin and I jump off the bike before landing on my back (yeah....i keep forgetting the rear brake).

i have this feeling of falling on my back and breaking my neck when doing wheelies i rarely do 2 pedal strokes. i can only do 1 stroke as of now and sometimes i jump backwards because i overpowered my first stroke and bar pulling.😂 and nakakatakot bilis ng tibok ng puso ko kapag umangat na front wheel! but i love the feeling!!!

@albatross, that will happen if you don't have the right gearing. normally the "over torque" happens when the gear is too light.

When you feel you are in the correct gear, it all falls under control of your pedal powers and balance. Kinda difficult when you're not familiar with the balance point

For wheelies, you need a high saddle position

I sometimes experience unintetional wheelie while climbing at timberland, usually paglampas ng siko which is the steepest part... which reminds me of what my friend said to start a wheelie on a low gear...

yep, that happens when you're climbing a hill with a low gear. try it on a flat surface

unintentional wheelies do happen, especially when using a low gear, and a combination of a steep climb and a long fork.

just sharing another wheelie progression... again i still cannot do a 'full wheelie' so i'm still in the process of learning - lucky to get 3 pedal strokes with a fugly balance whenever you encounter any rock or terrain obstacle, try to wheelie up on it. one doesn't have to aim for height, just enough to get your front wheel over the obstacle 'with control' - that's the key step on this progression. happy learning and stay safe!
