I sat on the passenger rack on my Songi electric bike until i did a rack delete (about 20 lbs off!) and modded up a low banana seat. I noticed the same thing- without the crash- that sitting back there made for a frighteningly light front end. Also noticed that the pedals on the Songi weren't much more than a legal formality- as far as locomotion, pushing it was almost better than pedaling it. Another plus for the low seat- get out of the air, more comfortable, and didn't hurt pedaling anyway.
