Holding back in those vids... The one where the camera was all over i was pedaling it in 2nd, it does get rather loose. The others were 3rd gear from about 40mph. Im anxious to see what 1st gear can do at the track. I havnt been really able to use it on the street. It gets loose most the way through 2nd with the 29 x 15.5 x 15 sportsman pros on the back. (which makes it not such a sleeper).
