The way I understand it works is by detecting a mildly oscillating rear wheel, ie the wheel is bouncing up and down under acceleration. The wheel will gain speed in the air.

It might be worth cleaning the wheel speed sensors and their reluctor ring if yours are of the exposed type.
Good to know.
Thanks
