Twitchy rear end
Coming off a busy road onto a cycle track there was about a inch or so of a kerb back end went threw me off hard .No. Crap tyres, not being wary of the road surface ? Had a few twitchy moments yesterday riding in the rain, and the road surfaces not being fantastic.
What were the 'tumbles' ?
Did you try to go up the kerb at too shallow an angle? That can cause the back wheel to slide away with ANY size of wheel! Ideally you should be going up the kerb at right angles to the kerb.Coming off a busy road onto a cycle track there was about a inch or so of a kerb back end went threw me off hard .
Those kerb dividers can be lethal, especially in the wet. never attempt to cross them at acute angles.Coming off a busy road onto a cycle track there was about a inch or so of a kerb back end went threw me off hard .
Thats what I did lesson learned the hard way.Those kerb dividers can be lethal, especially in the wet. never attempt to cross them at acute angles.
Went across off the road at a angle wanted to get off busy fast road with cars so close.Smaller wheels can make the steering a bit “quicker“ but the frame geometry will have more influence. Can you post a pic of your bike?
Did you go up or down the kerb? What angle did you approach it at? Road conditions? Unlikely to be the fault of the bike.
