It’s hard for me to imagine how you could flip the bike perfectly like the. Seems like either the handle bars would spin or the bike wouldn’t quite make it all the way around. I’ll say it’s plausible before I say it’s fake.

The handlebars did spin a bit but it looks like he straightened the wheel out before reaching the ground

After all the amazing tricks I see done with skateboards, this seems plausible.

I’d like to see a pro try it in a foam pit…I’m not completely sold on it. If it is real, then HOT DAMN!
