Ride "with hands".
Problem solved.

As likely to be something to do with how you're sitting on the bike and pedaling I'd have thought. Not sure how you'd test this though.

stop pedaling and see if the bike stays upright?

Most likely your position, but worth double checking that frame is straight. Get someone else to ride the bike and see if they notice it too.

You don't say where you've been riding but British roads are built with a camber so all vehicles tend to drift to the left unless steered.

I had a bent fork leg recently that was difficult to see by eye but caused a lot of drift - could it be the forks?

Dishing on rear wheel?

My last and current bike both veer to the left if I ride no hands so I put it down to me being fatter on one side.
The one before those veered because I bent the forks.

I dress to the right to counter this.

maybe the bike was designed to be ridden on a velodrome?

bent seat rails or seat post?
that's where all the weight is when your hands off the bars...

Move your tote bag from the left to your right side instead.

Sorry to spoil the pisstaking lozzles but I reckon the frame is bent. Check the alignment

This. Just ride like a normal person.

Sorry to break it to you but you probably have one leg longer than the other.

It's sunny outside, lean away!

What he said is most likely.
Lift the front wheel of the ground and turn the bars left and right.
Too tight or feeling indexed? -

And riding no-hands is great when you need to use the phone and hold a beer - I fully support this.
Hey,this is my first proper thread on this forum,i hope this isnt a repost although i did a quick search for a similar thread.
I recently bought a ridley oval frameset(brand new) after my dolan track champion cracked.The problem is that when im riding with no hands the bike tends to lean to the left.The front wheel is a bit out of true but i tried it with another wheel and it still does it.Could the problem be on the headset?(i've used the bearings from the track champ,but i cant find any info on the oval headset online).
