       Q2. How do you stop your front wheel from turning when walking with or leaning your bike? One of my bikes seems geometrically unstable and the front wheel turns at the slightest touch. Then the bike falls. I've seen stabilizer springs. Do you have one, or have you added one as an accessory?Are there certain geometries/component types that make this more likely, and can this be easily changed on your cycle?#BikeNiteQ #BikeNite #BikeTooter #Cycling #MastoBikes cc @bikenite

       @ascentale @bikenite A2When leaning the bike, I use a variant on the Bart Brake to cinch my front brake shut. Even if it flops a bit, it doesn’t fall over. When walking, I’m doing the same as @Amgine and steering from the saddle with little corrections in lean. #BikeNitehttps://passandstowracks.com/products/bart-brake

       @goldenmeanie @ascentale @bikenite @Amgine very cool! One of reasons I like #bikenite is learning of such clever things like this

       @dgodon @goldenmeanie @ascentale @bikenite @Amgine Oh, that's handy. I could make one of those in about 2 seconds, LOL.

       @ai6yr @dgodon @goldenmeanie @ascentale @bikenite @Amgine A2. Going off topic a bit here...Mr Click Stand (or Tom as I believe he is more appropriately called) uses those as part of the stability needed when using a Click Stand. These work brilliantly for keeping a loaded touring bike (or any other bike) upright if you don't want or can't fit a kick stand. I've used them on many tours.Info and photo credit: https://www.click-stand.com/#Cycling #BikeTooter #BikeNite #BikeTouring
