How far do you go into lean? Many riders don't know their reserves – and tense up long before the bike reaches its limits. Confidence comes from experience, step by step.
Exploring lean angle carefully
- A safe setting: Ideally on a recognised rider safety course on a closed site.
- In small steps: Increase your lean gradually, never in jumps.
- Notice the feeling: Feel how the suspension works and how calm the bike stays.
If the technique is there but your head holds you back, you'll find the right mental training here.
