Good for doing stunts where you need to get your weight back and low

Not so good for riding from pub to pub

I think (not 100%  sure but I thought) it became the "norm" when people started to do tail whips  ???
I might actually build a bike this year instead of just hoarding parts :)

I do have moments of clarity when I don’t spout complete twoddel

The older I get the less frequent they become  :-\

Bang-on Pete - changed height when tricks changed. They're only still on bmxs so's you can grab em with your knees to do bar-spins/no-handers etc. That and stop you carving yourself a new bum-hole on the seattube.
