Python lowracer. Still learning after 2hrs.

I am learning to ride and test driving the bike at the same time. I replaced the 20" rear wheel with a 26" that matches the front . I still do not have brakes or gears. By test riding I have found that the handle bars are too low. The handle bars are not for stearing. They give you a place to put your hands and brake levers. They say not to use them while you are learning to ride and I can see why. By habit you try to turn with your hands and not your legs.

Cooool. You should wear armour gloves while you drive that thing. The spectacular sparkling python rider, hahaha.

No, quite excellent for just 2 hours practise. It took me MUCH longer to ride my flevo bike. Great bike, i envy you for that!!!

You are not the problem. The handlebars are designed too close to the ground, They need to curve upwards more and then extend two inches higher on the grips so you don't drag yourself down. I suppose otherwise you could install training wheels below the grips.:)

Already so good after just 2 hours of practice! I still cant ride without the handle bars
