    Gyroscopic effect on front wheel of a bike. Applying a torque (in green) about the lean axis results in a reaction torque (in blue) about the steer axis. The role of the gyroscopic effect in most bike designs is to help steer the front wheel into the direction of a lean.

    Photograph of a physical implementation Detail of front end. A two-mass-skate bicycle (TMS) is a theoretical model created by a team of researchers at Cornell University, University of Wisconsin-Stout, and Delft University of Technology to show that it is neither sufficient nor necessary for a bike to have gyroscopic effects or positive trail to be self-stable.

  4. Countersteering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countersteering

    One effect of turning the front wheel is a roll moment caused by gyroscopic precession. The magnitude of this moment is proportional to the moment of inertia of the front wheel, its spin rate (forward motion), the rate that the rider turns the front wheel by applying a torque to the handlebars, and the cosine of the angle between the steering ...

  5. Precession - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precession

    The result is that the torque exerted by gravity – via the pitching motion – elicits gyroscopic precession (which in turn yields a counter torque against the gravity torque) rather than causing the spinning top to fall to its side. Precession or gyroscopic considerations have an effect on bicycle performance at high

    Article makes initially is unclear as to the effect of gyroscopic action in stability, ascribing it as a possible effect then states that it is possible to ride the bicycle without gyroscopic effects. Yes, gyroscopic effects influence handling and self-stability and gyroscopic effects are not necessary in order for a bike to be ridable.

    Gyroscopic bicycle uses a detachable gyroscope in the front wheel to make it stable and can be easily ridden by a disabled person. The gyroscopic disk can spin several thousand times per minute and has 3 speeds, the fastest rotation for the higher corrective effect of stability. [5]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jyrobike

    A Jyrobike [1] (formerly known as Gyrobike [2]) is a bicycle with a special front wheel designed to make balancing easier. It was manufactured and sold by a company of the same name. The special front wheel contains a rotating flywheel driven by a rechargeable-battery-powered motor that spins at high RPMs like a gyroscope. This flywheel spins ...

    Shilovsky's gyrocar in 1914, London A gyrocar is a two-wheeled automobile.The difference between a bicycle or motorcycle and a gyrocar is that in a bike, dynamic balance is provided by the rider, and in some cases by the geometry and mass distribution of the bike itself, and the gyroscopic effects from the wheels.
