anyone around the 400lb mark had any experience with the Trek CrossRip range?
Really like the look of this bike, and know it's rated as having a max of 300lb - it's not hard though to find many testimonies from 400lb riders successfully riding the Trek 720 tourer, which has an identical rating of 300lb.
I emailed Trek and they politely hinted I may be okay - though I know I'm reading too far into things, and that they did little of the sort.
Also, any similarly specced bikes around that will definitely carry a 400lb rider would be of interest to me.
I'll be riding very gently, on reasonably good roads.
Regards.
