Hell no.. can't even ride one in control like that on my MTB. In general it's my belief as you go from downhill MTB -> X/C MTB -> Cross bike -> Road bike this gets harder and harder due to the change in weight distribution and increasing saddle to bar drop. He's got some serious wheelie skills.

Hell yeah. I could totally wear that rainbow jersey!

Growing up in the late 70s I had a neighbor who routinely rode one handed wheelies on his 10-speed while smoking a cig. His name was Rocky and he also rocked out to Foreigner and Styx when his mom wasn't home :beer:

Dude mind as well announce his intentions to dope in L'Equipe...

1.) Clear evidence of helium in the tires.

2.) Front hub is is obviously has a motor in it causing the wheel to spin by itself.

3.) Floyd Landis (famously?) rode a wheelie up one of the climbs in the Alps.

I don't really care about racing, but I will pipe up here:

Sagan may be a bit of an idiot, but he is a) a great bike racer b) a technically skilled cyclist and c) exciting to watch.

Stupid tricks aside, watching him kick out the jams in a race is pretty thrilling.

No handed.... :eek:

[mcteague]

Not too impressive when you watch what some women can do.
