I think the hips is mostly about the ergonomics of getting the right weight distribution for the bike, but the countersteering is the same. lean the bike over with the opposite steering input, and the whole situation leans over (including you!)
- thefz 4y agoTurning the hips does a lot of subtle things, it impresses a rotational force to the rear wheel helping it to pivot on itself, and a rotational force into the pedals to further help the frame to rotate on itself. Further than that, it forces your head to turn into the direction you are heading and your shoulder line to stay parallel with the handlebar. Man, bike-human mechanics are complicated.
