Found someone testing weights in a bucket tight to the
seat http://www.tietoportti.com/Nojapy%C3%B6r%C3%A4.html

Hi *,
i think, too, this is how Juergen mentioned it - a rule of thumb.
the rideability has the drivers weight inside the equation. If you push the
bike
on its own, its all down to the weight distribution of the bike, plus the point
where one actually pushes the bike probably atcs as a leaver to bring down
force
on the pivot. Folks with higher seats should therefore do better...
greetings,
