Ironic.

No, that's not a mistake. That's literally the definition of countersteering.

Yes, yes it is. Countersteering is steering in the opposite direction of a turn. "Counter" - "steering".

There is no speed limit to countersteering, which is simply turning the front wheel one direction to turn the other direction. Countersteering works at all speeds. And lol no, the countersteering effect is not reversed at lower speeds.
One more time:
Countersteering is the only way to use handlebars to turn a two-wheeled vehicle.
