What is Gravity Biking?

The sport of gravity biking began over 30 years ago, and is made up of many BMX Hall of Fame Riders, Tommy Brackens, Eddie King, Greg Hill, and Scot Breithaupt. What is gravity biking? It's a stretched and lowered BMX bike with kneeler boards instead of cranks and pedals. Using only the force of gravity, these downhill bikes have been clocked in excess of 80mph. Racing on the street, athletes gamble life and limb on two tiny patches of rubber. These riders push tires to their limits on courses where high-speed turns are the name of the game.
