Most People Don't Know How Bikes Work

The video explores the mechanics of bicycle steering and balance, challenging the common belief that turning a bike is as simple as steering in the desired direction. Through experiments, it demonstrates the necessity of counter steering for balance and turning. The video also explains how bikes can self-stabilize without riders, using mechanisms like caster effect, mass distribution, and gyroscopic effects. It concludes with insights into ongoing research and innovations in bicycle design.
