I ride a Coda. 2008, standard model. I started at ~280lbs and had problems with the rear wheel...spokes a poppin', so I had a better wheel fitted...but other than that, no real issues. I did ditch the suspension seatpost, and changed grips and pedals to ones I prefer, added lights, fenders, and luggage.

Personally, I think the "upgrade" to a road triple and 9sp parts isn't that wonderful. The 9sp parts will wear a bit faster (chain and cogs) and the road gears are really just too high. The wheel upgrade seems nice though.

I've done rides into the 80+ mile range, with a few centuries on my calendar (fast approaching!). All rides have been really comfortable, and reliable, and pretty speedy too, much to the surprise of many of the roadies I ride with.
