How do you do a wheelie on a mini bike?

depending on how big it is and where the foot pegs are at if you try to shift your weight back it should do it but if it is a bigger one like mine you might want to move the foot pegs closer to you this will help you do that. Since mini-bikes don't have a lot power/ throttle adjustement when the wheel is in the air you will need to use your balancing skills and the rear brake to adjust the height of the front wheel during the wheelie.

How do you brake safely with hand brakes?

You would push down on both the front brake and the back brake. You would want to put a little more pressure on the back brake and slowly add pressure to the front brake. If you slam on the front brakes there is a possibility that you will fly over the handle bars. I know from experience and it is not fun. I hope this helped.
