Small fib about hard stunt by cyclist (7)
I believe the answer is:
wheelie
'stunt by cyclist' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'small fib about hard' is the wordplay.
'small' becomes 'wee' (Scottish term for small).
'fib' becomes 'lie' (a fib is a lie).
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'hard' becomes 'h' (abbreviation used in pencil classifications).
'wee'+'lie'='weelie'
'weelie' placed around 'h' is 'WHEELIE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for wheelie that I've seen before include "dangerous move on bike?" , "Bike trick" , "Manoeuvre" , "A bicycle trick and a bin" , "Type of bin" .)
