I never quite understood why it is so much easier to keep a bike balanced while riding at a certain speed, compared to riding it really slow, or while standing…

a beautiful question with no good answer. bicycle design has remained largely uncharged for at least a hundred years, i fell down a youtube rabbit hole on this subject a bit ago, and well everything plays a part sure. but i bike without a stearing mechanism is also self balancing, or a bike with out gyroscopic force will also balance itself, a bike without a rider can balance itself while in motion.

Really there is no complete answer!
