The front wheel and tyre generate what is aerodynamically called a spike, You could take this akin to a bow wave on a boat. When you have the low hands, you make the spike angle defect around your head by generating turbulence which your body then rides into.

This is more evident in transient flow and it will not work for everybody because of their dimensions. I made my point on a general population.
