This is apparently 'Radball'... looks like a quick way to gain a few injuries to me! Eye-wink

The guy doing the wheelie bar spin in the first movie gets me every time. I use to be able to pull a reasonable one handed wheelie on the old fixie but no hand looks like a short cut to no teeth!

So much for the excuse 'I have the wrong bike'! Eye-wink
What kind of bikes are they using anyway?? They look a bit like my grandmothers old bike (if she had one) but I am sure they are super high tech and I just can't see that Smiling

Flynny's picture

they are just basic fixed wheel jobs. they look to be modified to have the seat much further back than would be normal and those handlebars are plain strange

They are specially made bikes for the job, unsurprisingly no one out side of Europe gets involved with indoor cycling. Caro you don't fool us with your naivety, the Germans are mad for it.

The World Championships will be on in Switzerland in November - not to sure whose on the Aussie team - Flynny this might be your chance.
