    I can transition to 1ft ww or just drop to pedals. Dropping to pedals
    is easier, just glance down, when your cranks are level flick your feet
    off the tyre/frame and just drop down to the pedals. Chuck in a little
    unispin if you feel like it. Going to 1ft ww is quite abit harder.
    Pause standing on the tyre, reach and grab the saddle then drop down
    pushing your saddle under your butt and simply proceed to 1ft ww.
    transitioning to 1ft ww will take abit of practice, also you need to be
    under control and ballanced, dropping down takes neither of these, it
    can be done quickly and easily with easy success.
