Do bike makers adjust their designs for bigger sizes

Hi,

It suddenly occurred to me to wonder: do bicycle makers factor in to their plans the fact that the riders of larger sized bikes will themselves be larger. On the face of it would seem nuts if they didn't: someone riding a 50 cm frame is surely going to weigh far less than someone riding a 62. But all the concern about heavier riders on carbon bikes, suggests that we're on our own. Is that right?
