Wow, I never noticed how much the rear tire compresses during wheelies!

Well, keep in mind what his rear pressure in the tire is...

The HP2S book recommends 30 psi front and rear for track.

Nate runs them at 29 in the rear...

What's actually scarier is to stand and watch when they are coming out of a tight corner at higher speeds... you can see the tire wall walking and almost collapsing!
