    I don’t get it when people (usually chavs) can just sit back with their hands in their pockets - when I try it my handlebars twist out to one side instantly.

      Most bikes are stable and a cyclist can weight shift to turn gently without touching the handlebars

      Mine is a recumbent that steers with long handlebars. The handlebars prevent the bike from balancing itself.

      Yours might have barely stable geometry, or badly placed weight on the handlebars
