Gyroscopic action is the characteristic trait of a spinning disc to resist certain changes in motion. As the wheels rotate they will begin to stabilize the bike and do their bit to keep the bike from toppling over.

How can you ride a bicycle slowly?

At slow speeds the gyroscopic action of the wheels isn't much help, so it's all up to the balancing skill of the rider. Practise, practise practise!


Why does top not fall during spinning?

A spinning top has a gyroscopic effect that is resistant to changing its axis (falling over). The faster the top, the stronger the gyroscopic effect. As the top begins to slow due to friction, the gyroscopic effect weakens and the top begins to fall.


If six gyroscopes connected together at a central point in six different planes are spun at a high rpm in opposite directions would it remain suspended in mid-air?

No. Gyroscopic action does not prevent the action of gravity. It resists the actions of movement through momentum.
