Anon you post on /n/ every night, but you can't even bunny hop without cheating with clipless pedals?
What's your fucking excuse.

>2/10 try hard detected
A random bunny hop pic i have, not my highest
>cheating with clipless pedals?
Clipless pedals make 0 difference in bunnyhopping, if you are yanking up on the pedals you are doing it wrong
I DON'T KNOW MAN I JUST CAN'T OKAY

>if you are yanking up on the pedals you are doing it wrong
Hence the cheating. With flat pedals you don't have that option, you have to learn how to bunnyhop properly.
>>1057885
can you point me to a video where they teach the correct way to bunny hop? approved by you. thonks
>>1057934
seth's bike hacks has like 5 and they're all quality
b-but I just landed barspin 180...
I cheat with fork rebound- not clips
BOOOOOOING.
>>1057916
>Hence the cheating
How is handicapping yourself cheating? It's like cheating in a marathon by running backwards.
>>1060386
Fork rebound isn't going to help you lift the rear end up, clips can. Suspension doesn't actually help at all (even in the rear), it just absorbs some of the energy you put in and makes it even harder to hop.

No, it's like cheating in a marathon by taking a taxi ride to the finish. Clips make it easier for people who don't know how to hop to lift the rear wheel. It's not a handicap for them, without clips they wouldn't be able to lift the rear wheel as easily if at all.

>What's your fucking excuse.
My bike weighs 20kg, has full fenders, a rack with panniers and flat pedals.
>>1060411
I've hopped full suspension 20kg bikes over a foot high before, git gud.
>>1060411
>my bike is too heavy
>>1060411
This is the bike I honed my bunnyhop skills on, I could hop over handlebar height (~3ft) as a skinny teen. Back in the late 90s there was a BMX fad where heavy parts must mean stronger parts, so bikes were approaching 50lbs with frames like mine (2hip Pork), the Gack Cannibal, Solid forks with a literally solid steertube and their cranks with a solid spindle, and the ultimate wheelset, Alex triple wall, 12ga spokes, Primo Son of a Bomb hubs. Then in the early 00s there was a light bike fad where people were building 16-17lb bikes and snapping headtubes off Eastern ti Reapers every few weeks. Now BMX bike weight has leveled off at 25lbs or so and nobody really cares about weight anymore. Bunny hop height hasn't changed whatsoever through all these years, because bike weight has 0 to do with how high you can hop it, the main things that matter are chainstay length, BB drop, and reach, that's why you can hop higher more easily on a BMX, with the tiny chainstays and no bottom bracket drop it's easier to use the bike as a big lever by pushing down on the pedals and pulling up on the bars, then when your body is in motion upwards you let the bike rise up underneath you.

It's a difficult and counterintuitive motion.

How about a 50lb bike with solid steel wheel covers

it's 48.5 at the end of the video and he's a 5'4 super manlet
>>1057837
pretty good I could probably do it on bmx but my hop on cx is pathetic (seat is in the way??)
>>1060575
Look at that pig
Actually I can bunnyhop with flats. I want to go to clipless pedals but I feel like I might unlearn proper bunnyhop form.

Instead he slings shit at those who can shred fearlessly while clipped in

jesus christ anon learn to trackstand you're a fucking joke
>>1062512
You're mixing me up with OP
Surely you realized that before you gushed
>>1060575
>... that's why you can hop higher more easily on a BMX
So you're sayin if I can't hop my 20kg bike with full fenders, a rack with panniers and flat pedals, then I should just get a BMX.
Thanks for your input.
>>1062516
no you should kill yourself
>>1062516
are you retarded?
>>1057837
I can totally get over a curb, though.

Is riding only a hybrid and road bikes all my life good enough excuse?
