Lawton Denis is a mountain bike racer, and a RU-vid/social media influencer. Lawton is from Albany, NY, where he is a member of the Niskayuna Mohawk Mountain Goats NICA MTB team. In addition to cross-country racing, Lawton is big on bike parks. He frequents Killington in VT, Mountain Creek in NJ, and Thunder Mountain in MA.
Lawton is an ambassador for Jamis Bikes, Crank Brothers, Industry Nine, Continental Tires, All Mountain Style (AMS), Finish Line Bake Care Products, Cognative MTB, and Ride Out Supply
Of course, Lawton’s biggest claim to fame is his ability to wheelie anything with two wheels. Whether you see Lawton out on the trails or cruising through cities, you’ll rarely see him with both tires on the ground.
You can catch Lawton traveling around the US with his Jamis Portal, Jamis Hardline, and his Wheelie Bike to major cities and MTB hubs such as Sedona, Santa Cruz, Asheville, and many others.
For everyone to the future: if you cant pop up the wheel just like i does you need to have arms in box position and push with both arms and then!! Push the pedal with foot not reversed !!
I’ve been trying to maintain a wheelie for years and I can’t do it. Any advice? I can’t seem to balance in terms of left and right not forward and back
