Hoo Koo E Koo "Rootbeer"

Hello I'm new to the world of biking, and I was able to buy a mint condition Hoo Koo E Koo "Rootbeer" Mountain Bike.

My question is, is that I'm a big guy weighing in at 318 - and I just want to make sure that this bike is strong enough in the welds/rims and such to hold me ? I can't find any information online so I figured I would try this route.

Thank you.

Is that the 2009 model? If so, you've really scored. I love what Gary Fisher had going on that year w/their frames.

I'm afraid I can't really speak to your question. My guess is that you might be outside the design parameters, but that's nothing more than a guess on my part. Hopefully someone else will come along w/more knowledge.
