i would just like to point out a few things:

- there is no benefit from wheeling outside of the dirt
- it does serious stress to your forks and will damage your seals as well as bend your frame and triples if you aren't perfectly smooth (as in- you haven't been doing it professionally for years)
- i know several people who were "good at wheelying" who have wrecked while trying to wheelie. including someone on this very forum who just looped their bike doing it.
- you can get wreckless endangerment tickets if a cop sees you doing it.
- it makes you take off slower
- you look retarded doing it
