quick question - who is the guy that stunts on one wheel?

I saw a guy stunting before with the forks and wheel removed. Anyone have a link to this vid? I can't find it on google/youtube

What I would like to know is why? I mean as a stunt it's pretty sick to see. But the bike looks retarded without a front end. And if you come down off a wheelie like that you **** up way more stuff. I understand that people love the risk, but the only real difference between that and a regular wheelie is that the stakes are higher, possibly balance point changes due to less weight in the front. But whyyy?

you say why, they say why not....Its just something different, adds an extra element of danger too.. Good for shows and video Not really any extra danger to the person but more for the bike...Although it you look really close at Zoltans bike, he does have something at the bottom fairing to prevent alot of damage if he drops it...

The few guys who have done this aren't exactly power wheelie types. Already very proficient stunters not really a biggie to take the front end off and giver'! Sit down Steves segment from C n I 5 is awesome, get the footage load up the sonoma road side and seee ya. Those who can, do...
