ben_travis Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 (edited) It seems that Benito got a distinction in the Advanced Bicycle Balancing Posture class taught through the Ryan Leech School of Balancing (RLSB) in that first picture.

BradJohnson Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Helps to give more bounce in a similar way to cutting side knobbles off. it helps to separate the knobbles so they don't touch when the tyre compresses. It's hard to explain but i hope this helps. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
