How to Do A Wheelie On A Mountain Bike !!!!!!
Make Sure That YOU HAVE FULL 80%-85% AIR IN YOUR REAR TYRE.
Let's start with the bike:
The most important thing on your bike, is your brake system, you will need the brake lever on your handelbars. When performing a wheelie, this will help you control speed and prevent you from falling on your butt. Your rear brake has to function properly or you will face the risk of falling.
Adjust your seat to a HIGH OR MIDDLE position, You'll ride the wheelie sitting down, and seat position will help keep you maintain your center of gravity and balance.
My seat height is 99 centimeters from the ground and the rails on the seat is 18 centimeters above the frame.
Now for the wheelie:
Lean back, outstretch your arms and sit on the tip of the seat. this way you'll have a comfotable position while performing the wheelie
keep one finger on the rear brake lever, and grip firmly on the bars with the rest of your fingers
One of the first things you need to learn, when you come up with the front wheel is how to control the sideway balance - this can be done with your knees, feet or by turning the handlebars in the opposite direction. Just make sure the handlebars are straight before you come down.
You can not learn this in one day, but with alot of practice you will get there. I've been training for about a year!
If you want to perform a really long wheelie, it is important that you keep your mind clear and look at the horizon. Focus on a smalle object way ahead of you, that will help you mauntain your balancE

Look my friend metrev in circle you only have to only turn the handlebars in the opposite direction in which direction you are performing.the wheelie.and balance by your knees,foot but notwith your handlebars.
I dont have any such video tutorial for learning wheelie circle but will come soon by the next year because my new mtb is coming.
