Afternoon all

Since im giving up my beloved Megane Sport (impending Fatherhood), im spending some of the money made from the sale of the car on a new frame

Really like the 2010 Scott Scale 40 frame, but am concerned that im too heavy for it. I tend to hover around 16 stone (just over 100kgs). Given its lightweight construction, will it be able to cope with my weight ? Some lightweight frames say 85kgs max weight, but there doesnt seem to be any restrictions on the Scott website

Other options are a 2nd hand Stumpy HT or a Giant XTC

Any advice welcome

Cheers

DCR

    Nah you'll be fine! There's a nominal weight limit on the Spark of around 110kg, but there's plenty of 'larger' folk riding both.
