I'm with Beanz here. If you market it as some kind of ride for the handicapped, clydes like me who ain't ashamed of their size and are perfectly confident in their riding abilities ain't gonna touch it...and some may be offended by the insinuation that because they are a clyde they need some kind of special ride they can handle.

Stocking stuff for bigger folk is great, just that will get you a lot of clyde business. If you want to have a ride, advertise it as a social ride, open to anyone. Just my dollar two ninety eight.
