Well, I'm 5"5..and of course a woman can't reveal her weight  Wink

But, I can say my seat is pretty much falling apart at the seams now, and it runs hard as well. (That's what I get for wearing a chained wallet). I haven't adjusted the shocks, mainly because I don't/didn't know how to.  Embarrassed

Anyway, where can I get shocks and seats that are..descently priced for a ..small budget?  Smiley

I'm 5'4" and will not say how much I weigh, but the ride is fine; no bottoming out. I did put a gel seat on to replace the stock.  That alone made enough difference for me to ride all day without too much monkey-butt going on.  Wink

From your sig pic I don't think you remotely qualify for being the "biggest" rider in any sense of the term. Wink

I'm 6'1", 185 lbs, and ride 50+ miles a day, if not a LOT more, on the 2nd softest setting.  I've bottomed out once in 9 months.   Wink

You are fine - I was 6' and 326 lbs when I bought my 06. Thanks to a gastric bypass I am down to 274. Best thing I have done for myself and suzi. I don't care what other people think. I mostly commute due to my work schedule and family committments. The bike is a blast and easy to work on. Have fun and enjoy!!!!!!!!!!
