After delivery at the store today, I would like to write a little about "arrangement" that customers are most asked. That is such a unique gear. That's a skid. Is it a trick, or a fixed gear rider's unique skill ... Anyway, it seems that many people yearn for skids, and the probability of being asked questions is very high. What is a skid? Personally First, see the video.

Well, what you do on this San Francisco tiered slope is different. 。 。 What I want to say is that if I can do this, I control the wheel that rotates with my feet. It is a technology that helps decelerate and stop, and is the basis of tricks with topists. You can get a more direct feeling, and this is unique to the fabric. So, if you get on a little, you will start with interest and start with interest. After all there are many questions One month after or after delivery than when delivered. Do you want to do it after getting used to the fabric itself? I remember I started practicing as soon as I started riding. So what should I do? That's it, but it's difficult to explain it in letters. "Shortcuts for skid learning Part 1 There is only practice" Intuitively, it is an image of pushing the pedal that comes up. Should I stop it with a good dominant leg (the forefoot when the pedal is parallel), right? There are some questions, but basically it is an image of stepping on with the opposite feet. This is the correct answer because there are individual differences in the way! I don't mean I do it with a stronger consciousness. "60 %, 70 % supported foot 40, 30 %" It is about the image. I'm currently practicing skids on a daily basis! Please refer to it. Of course, if you come to the store, I think there is a time zone where you can give direct advice, so please feel free to feel free to! Recommended after weekday evening! "Setting change with 2 parts for skid learning" It is difficult to grasp the sensation even if you practice. 。 。 Let's solve it with the parts. smile It is not unusual for the parts to be used a little so that they can easily enter. Two main parts to be replaced! Forever"Handle" and "cog (or chain ring)" If you use a riser bar (even a little longer) type type type, like this photo, It makes it easier to get power and the control is much better, so it's easy to make a skid. It is somehow convinced that such riser bars are often used for active bicycles such as mountain bikes. It's easy when climbing the slope.

The other is a cog or chain ring!

The reason is that we simply reduce the gear ratio (lightness of rowing) and create an environment that is easier to stop with the power of the feet. This is quite recommended. If the gear ratio is about 2.88 or less, I personally impress the crispy kid. If you lighten the gear ratio, remember the trigger, and soak in the body, you can skid a certain degree of gear ratio. These two parts replacement are quite immediate.So, skid by summer! ! I recommend those who are planning lol Then, around here.
