How to ride a bike using no handlebars?

Question

I'm trying to learn how to ride my bike using no hands. I know it requires keeping a straight posture to put less pressure on the front wheel, and riding on a smooth surface. Are there any other secrets? I was also told that it has something to do with the bike. What kind of bike is best for no-handers?

Answer 1

look straight ahead. never look down!

Answer 2

You've got the basics - lean back a little and keep a good pace with the pedals - spin.

It really doesn't matter what kind of bike - unless your talking BMX or tick bike - it's harder on those - but it should be "trued" and aligned properly for best results.

But even more impressive would be a track stand - where you can keep the bike upright at a dead stop.

Please use both hands if we meet in the bike lane, though!

Happy riding.
