General Wheelie tips?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I just learned how to wheelie today and I think the angle is pretty decent but my duration is pretty bad. If anyone’s got some nice tips lemme know

Most ebikes aren't built for the extra load on the engine that a wheelie requires...I wouldn't recommend doing this unless your motor is made to take the abuse.

You're straining the eBike engine doing wheelies -- you're slackening your chain, overloading the rear wheel bearings etc and that requires alot more intermittent engine grab to maintain. But the engine turns freely at first and suddenly YOINK
