Dear Friends,
I have a #physics question about #bicycles.
What roll does pedaling play in stabilizing a bike, especially when cornering?
When I take a corner on a #bike I believe I gain more stability when I pedal through it. I'm not sure it's caused by the higher speed pressing me into the corner because I will often brake at the same time to keep the speed down. My #dumbass #theory is pedaling offers some #gyroscopic stability.
Thanks!
