That's very interesting about bicycles. I always thought the reason why bikes self-right was because of the conservation of angular momentum.



I think that's not quite accurate. I remembere there were some experiments where wheel had a counterspinning weight attached to nullify its momentum and the bicycle still mostly worked as usual.
