Nice small puzzle. Easy, but still required some thinking.

Simply put, when you lean a bit to the left, say, the gyroscopic effect causes the front wheel to turn to the left, which does help the rider stay up by putting the wheel a bit more under him than if it turned right or didn't try to turn either way. That's really all there is to it.

Interesting. I just thought it was called balance.
