I think you hold the front brake on and rev the bike and some sort of weird shit happens as the rear wheel spins up it drags the bike backwards! :?

Whats the rope he uses? Im thinking its:
OX Fibre® is our own range of high strength, high performance HMPE rope. This brand of HMPE is a new approach to rope, offering customers huge cost-saving potential for top quality products.


Minimum Break Loads
6mm - 3,000kgs
8mm 5,000kgs

I think he said 4mm rope.

Does that sound strong enough?

For rear recovery just ensure the rope winds the other way around the rear wheel. Clockwise and anti clockwise.
