No hands!!!? |
what it is i'm a very keen cyclist long distances and that but i can't ride taking my hand off the handle bars when i need water or stretch my arms through aching what is the knack im serious no joke[racing bike] It all depends on balance. Usually you balance the bike by your hands on the handlebars. However when trying to go one or no handed you need to compensate the unbalance with the other resting point you have nl. your saddle. First of all you'll need to make sure that you are sitting straight and upright. A straight back is very important when going no hands. Just try to lower your weight a bit and after a few tries you'll find that you can balance the bike by shifting your bum around your saddle. Once you can handle this on a straight road you can even try to take turns this way. I can withouth to many hassle and I ride a race bike. (those tires are really slim) yeah i cant too....i'd lose my balance :( me 2 keep you're body up right, make sure there is the same gap in between you're knees and you're bike each side sit up straight and pedal smoothly On two wheels the faster you go the more stable you become. It just takes practise and confidance. Try putting one hand in the middle of your handle bars to keep you steady when your getting used to it. But seriously the faster you go the easier it is to do. Slow down a little and maintain a straight posture. |
