Yah, but still not really long enough to justify fitting a 12 bar Having said that, they're mostly fashion accessories going by the bikes i've seen them fitted to, bit like nitrous bottles with no plumbing

If you can't wheelie it pretty well anyway then why look at a bar? It's mostly for the very slow stunt stuff, normal road wheelies tend to be a lot faster and lower.

hmm didn't know that. I never felt mine anywhere near lifting up on heavy acceleration, but anyway I won't attempt it I'm sick of having bikes in pieces.
