Im 205, on a light day, and can often be found with 30lbs+ in my bag. I hated the wheel on the front because the turning seemed slower and the crosswinds wanted to take the nose of the bike all the time.The rear I dont mind but I dont see any benefit over a well built traditional rear. Im all for rocking what you want though. Go big or go home.
very true on the slow turning. they suck if you want performance to count (racing, getting places as fast as possible) but for general riding, commuting, and wanting to look good they work well
