Down gearing with the revs too high and not blipping the throttle will cause the rear to lock and skid.

it's odd but the only thing that really doesn't bother me when riding is if the back locks up and slides around....

I guess it's all the years of BMX'ing and Mountain Biking where kicking the back end out whilst it's sliding is par for the course... Confused
