Why Doesn’t a Moving Bicycle Fall Over? 🚲 | Tutki Asks Why

A bike standing still topples right over… so why doesn’t a moving one? 🚲 Tutki the octopus watches a spinning bicycle wheel, a broom balanced on a hand, a slow rider and a faster one, and a bike with nobody on it rolling down a test track. Is it the spinning wheels, or something else? Talk it over at every countdown, and stay for the fun facts! ▶ Try it yourself, free: https://nowiseewhy.com/spinning-top?f...

When a moving bike starts to tip, its front wheel turns into the tip and the wheels roll back under it, just like moving your hand under a balanced broom. It works best moving along, and even a bike with nobody on it, given a good push, steers itself for a while. The spinning wheels help a little, but steering is the big secret. Always wear a helmet, and ride with a grown-up, somewhere safe, away from cars. Tutki Asks Why: a science adventure for curious kids, with Tutki the octopus. Got a "why" question?
