A spinning bike wheel is held up by a rope (or chain) on the end of its axle. If the angular momentum of the bike wheel is sufficient, then the bike wheel will remain spinning perpendicular to the ground and be seen to precess. The reason for this precession is because of the torque due to the weight of the wheel.
