he has a very good point. how does it help you to learn tricks as you will never get the feel and learn to get to the pedals it doesn't matter how you land as you wont fall off. don't get me wrong i bet there good fun but not really gonna help much to learn tricks.
yeah yeah i accept your point but were not out there to learn the tricks to then go and do them on a bike. As were neither BMXers nor Dirtjumpers were out purely for the fun factor. Bar spins aren't that easy on a downhill bike...
I made a tramp bike as my A2 DT project. Heres a picture of it:
This was it before I finished it. The bottom bracket is high because I later added 2 CNC'd nylon chainings that were a heart shaped cam which pumped a bar with 2 cartdrige bearings that ran on the cams, which pumped a air shock with the valve open so you could vary how easy it was to turn the pedals. It worked surprisingly well! I only did it because my teacher said the bike as it was was too simple to get good marks! I couldn't find a cheap air shock though, and ran out of time, so used a football pump!
It looked something like this:
Here's it in action:

yeah youll get really good if its in your garden, my mate got his like a year ago, last weekend he got a barspin to double tailwhip, crazy combo he can do tail whips on his real bike since he got it aswell, it must help with riding, its virtually the same but without the wheels, youve just got to put more effort to throw around a bike with the extra weight on the trails, best to use an mtb frame for it though!
