Nah, that's definitely the bags, not the sealant. Even if you've had the same setup before, a slight difference in weight distribution can change a lot.

That was my thought, but my girlfriend has a very stable Croix De Fer, just the empty rack on the front and she instantly said the handling had changed. The wheelset and tyres was new so could be a factor, but still 700c and very similar tyre width.
Edit, it changed at certain times, not just different/worse the whole time.

Has anyone had issues with speed wobble due to sealant and centrifugal force (or whatever is actually happening).
In Bosnia/Montenegro right now with my partner, Cinturato H 40 and 45mm tyre respectively, fresh sealant. I think about 60ml per tyre but maybe more.
Front racks (jack the rack) and I have fork mounted bags but have ridden the same setup before with no issues. Checked both headsets and ridden both bikes with no load on front rack, but still getting shit front handling/speed wobble. My. Girlfriend described it as just suddenly happening and then stopping, I assume due to speed/vibration etc.
