Trav,
How much did you weigh when you started riding the crosstail? I'll definitely increase my range to get a better bike with better tire if the wheels will last.
Actually after thinking about it, I weighed 377 lbs when I started riding the Crosstrail. I used to weigh alot more than that (537lbs at my worst) but had walked and watched my caloric intake to get to a point that I felt comfortable on the bike.
