Vincenzo Nibali wheelie Instagram still.PNGVideo: Peter Sagan not the only pro who likes to pull a wheelie - here's Vincenzo Nibali doing one
We all know that whether he's out training or riding in cycling's biggest races, Peter Sagan likes to pull the odd wheelie - but he's far from the only pro who enjoys rolling along just on his rear wheel.
Vincenzo Nibali - along with Trek-Segafredo's Alberto Contador, the only current rider to have won all three of cycling's Grand Tours - has got in on the action too, with the Instagram video below shot on the final day of his Bahrain-Merida's training camp on Tenerife.
A pretty impressive wheelie it is, too, with the Sicilian looking pretty relaxed as he pedals past the camera.
Here's the bike he did it on - the 2017 Merida Scultura.
Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.
