I have no problem doing wheelies... first or second gear. It's third gear where I can't pull it up... After riding this bike for a season I rarely hit the rev limiter anymore. The bike is a low torque bike so wheelies are best done at the bottom of the rev range. First gear doesn't matter how fast, second gear the sweet spot is from 13mph to 20mph but its possible a little faster. I can do both sitting down.
