Great video, thanks! :clap: Why didn't I check youtube? Too old I guess. Now I just need to get the nerve to practice the move. :lol: Thanks for all the responses, especially the use your back suggestions. :doh: This bike just seems so top heavy.

I dropped mine once is a softly filled gravel 'hole', that didn't look like a hole, on our unmaintained county road, while walking it up our driveway. Could hardly budge it.

My Honey is an R.N., and lifts patients, on and off, all day long. I went and got her, and almost by herself, we got it up.

I like the modified handlebar technique, put it in first gear, and find someone else to lift it!

sometimes, depending on the surface it's lying on, it helps to engage the front brake as well.

Great way to introduce air into the system! Be careful as sometimes the angle will allow air to go into the lines, then you will have spongy brakes!!
