I think it's pretty safe to say your LBS carbon fiber racing bike with the lightly spoked wheels and tire clearances limiting the bike to 23mm tires at most (and yes, there are plenty that won't even take a 25mm) was not designed for a 290 pounder. In fact, chances are it wasn't designed for a 200 pound rider. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
