Traffic Rider

Want to dominate the leaderboards in Traffic Rider? Want to earn tons of gold to unlock superbikes like the Tomahawk or Aura? The key to success is the Wheelie skill!

What is Wheelie in Traffic Rider?

In Soner Kara's legendary first-person racing game, Wheelie is the technique of lifting the front wheel of a motorcycle and moving on only the rear wheel.

Google and the gaming community highly rate this skill because it offers two huge benefits:

• Double or Triple Score: When you do a wheelie at high speed, your score will skyrocket.
• Rapid Gold Earning: The higher your score, the more gold you receive after each race in Career Mode or Endless Mode.

How to Activate the Wheelie Button for New Players

Many new players often wonder: "Where is the wheelie button in Traffic Rider?". In reality, this button won't appear if you're riding the default scooters.

To activate the Wheelie feature, you need:

• To own a motorcycle or large displacement bike: Save up money to buy models from the KF 450F series and above.
• To find the Wheelie icon: When entering a match, a button with a motorcycle lifting its front wheel will appear in the bottom left corner of the screen (near the brake button).
• To perform a wheelie: Simply press this button, and your character will automatically accelerate and lift the front wheel.

Top 5 Wheelie Tips in Traffic Rider to Avoid Crashes

Wheeling is easy, but doing it without crashing into the truck in front is the art. Apply these 5 crucial tips:

Reach speeds above 100 km/h before lifting the wheel

Never press Wheelie when the car is just starting or going slowly. Accelerate to speeds above 100 km/h. At this speed, when you do a wheelie, the car will maintain strong momentum and bonus points will be activated continuously.

Combine Wheelie with the "Overtake" Combo

This is a top-secret tip for high-score record series. When you are doing a wheelie and overtaking other vehicles at high speed, the game will award a very heavy combo score. Your score will increase exponentially.

Dangerous Note: When doing a wheelie, the first-person view will be tilted upwards, limiting visibility of the highway ahead. Only overtake when you have secured sufficient space ahead.

Tap and release the Wheelie button to adjust your visibility.

Don't hold down the wheelie button. If you see too many obstacles ahead, release the Wheelie button to lower the front wheel, regain visibility, and maneuver through a narrow gap, then press the button again.

Wheeling in the opposite lane

If you're playing Two-Way mode, take a risk and wheelie in the opposite lane. This technique requires extremely quick reflexes, but the money and points it earns will make you rich quickly.

Invest in upgrading your Handling stats

The more powerful your bike, the easier it is to flip over if you don't have control of the handlebars. Use the money you earn to upgrade your Handling and Braking stats in the garage. Better traction will help you maneuver through cars smoothly, even while riding on one wheel.
