Well, this sort of blows my mind, because I know that you understand bicycle mechanics, and evidently I know even less than I thought I did. This was something I was told ages ago, and I felt like it made intuitive sense, and explains why riderless bikes stay upright for a considerable distance when given a sufficient push, and why it’s so much harder to track stand than it is to, say, ride a bike. So, how do I make sense of this new universe I am living in?
(edit) I hope that didn’t come off as snarky. I am genuinely confused, and curious.
