The geometry of bike steering means that the faster your going the more the front wheel wants to straighten out. The contact patch of the rubber is behind the steering axis (called caster), and this pulls the wheel in line. This in combination with a bunch other cool stuff helps highspeed stability. Also, the motorcycle is pulling him in a straight line, so the tension on the cable is not gonna let him veer off without significant effort.

@@EarthIsFlat456 The word "centrifugal force" exists, and is used in various contexts. You are right, centrifugal force, is a "fictitious force" or inertial force. But for "normal" communication (where you don't care about being able to derive equations for e.g the coriolis force) it's far better to say centrifugal force, than stating the frame of reference you're talking about and describing how the constraining forces of the bicycle spokes are ripping the rubber of the tires apart. The so called "g-forces" everyone is talking about when they are describing rollercoasters, astronauts or fighter jets, are also "not real" and just inertial forces. But that doesn't make it less valid to use that word in Newspapers, Articles, KZread Videos etc.. You can totally die from too high "not real" forces. Nobody would say that a fighter pilot was just magically flying through the air with 2000 km/h and then suddenly he smashed into his own cockpit from the inside.

Mountain Bike aren't designed to go as fast as 200km/h. It suspension didn't stiff enough to make the bike stable, so this man must control the wobbling bike because of it's rigidless and air resistant. That's make this world record even more impressive 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Bruh suspension has HLO it would be set to On so it's a rigid suspension with extra weight. Both were set to On the rear and front so it wasn't wobbling as we can see in the vid. Else the suspension would be oscillating at tat speed.
Whoever made that bicycle should be very proud of it.

This is beyond insane!!😮. Going that speed on a motorcycle is crazy enough! I think any faster than 40kph on a bicycle is sketchy enough for me
those bicycle wheels must be absolutely first class stuffs...
Am getting myself a Scott,..damn that chassis can hold up!
I can't imagine what would happen if even by mistake the bicycle handle turned a little bit to the right or left.
im really surprised by the setup, the weird way the tow rope was attached, a bike with suspension, dirt tires, i would be terrified of the brakes accidently grabbing, i think i would just remove them or just put on really weak rears. i would probably but a damper on the steering too. glad it all worked!
Whoaaaa! I'm so happy for you, Man! You're the best!
Amazing. The wheels had to be specially built; extremely balanced, spoke tension tolerances exact. The tires also must be balanced and high-ply. At those speeds, the heat build-up could make the tires and rims explode. And any imbalances would make the bike unstable and cause wheel shimmy and steering shake. I didn't see a steering damper on it. This bike was well built. He also used a single crown fork. A downhill racing dual crown triple clamp fork would have been my choice. But still the bike seems to have held up well
I know how hard this is to hold a bicycle at that speed,my friend towed my bicycle from his bike at ~50kmph and I still struggled a lot🗿💀
