I'm not sure why, but when Karen sits on the back I do not get the weave (with the TCKs) at any speed.
2 possible reasons or a combination of both.
1) The extra weight causing the rear tyre to make a bigger footprint or/and
2) The weight being on the back makes the rake and trial bigger (the angle of the forks) and stabilzes the bike.

I would plump for the rake and trail thing myself.

PS...Molgan there are 14.7 PSI in a Bar so 2.3 bar = 33.8 PSI
