at the end is was between YT decoy and BH. I've bought the YT Decoy ... although BH score better on supported weight 160 kg vs 150 kg is was the subjective element of look that made my decision in favour for YT decoy Be carefull with dealers "saying ... won't leave me ... " will they put it on...

You're out of specifications for the Specialized. Permitted Total Weight of S is 130 kg. So PTM = riders weight + bikes weight + backpack + ... 260 lbs is 118 kg. bike = +/- 22 kg. So 130 - 118 = 12 kg . Houston we have an issue ! Probably it will "work" but from a "specification" perspective...

At this time I found out that there is only one bike on the market that fits according MY "weight" specifications. It' BH bikes from Basque Country (Spain) BH Bikes . The PTW (Permitted Total Weight) = this includes rider + bike + backpack + ... is 165 Kilogram. There are also some bikes with...

Yes Gary ... I'm living in Antwerp but the Ardennes are not that far .. For the rest I'm spending a lot of my "free" time (summer/winter) in Les Gets and this not only during the Morzine Harley days when riding on my other full suspension bike 2019 FLHXS. So now you probably understand why FS...

Hi fellow Clydesdales I'm a 58 year old male from Antwerp - 330 lbs and 5'9" (145kg/174cm) After a long time I want to go back into MTB and especially EMTB. Any recommendation on selecting the best EMTB for my "specifications" ? I'm looking for a FS EMTB Enduro type bicycle without having...

Adam see my last post on Fox ... any feedback is more than welcome

Share see my last post on Fox ... your feedback is more thank welcome

Fatbap see my last post above ... feedback always welcome

By searching the WWW I found out that I'm a "Clydesdale biker" putting 330 lbs on the scale. I'm living in Antwerp Belgium ... therefore I've contacted Samba (Sabma - Distributeur et service center officiel des produits FOX au Benelux) who are the Benelux distributor for Fox. They recommended...

Hi Gary ... I'm back ;-) see my new post below

Hi, got your point ... thanks

Fatbap, thanks for the tip ... I'll certainly have a look to mojo and TF ... any other brands/suppliers ? which YT decoy are you using ? Are all decoy frames the same ?

Shane, thanks for you reply ... which is the brand of spring/coil you're talking about ... and on which shock this can be mounted ?

Gary ... perhaps we have another definition of "tough" ... ;):giggle:

Paul, thanks for the tip ... will certainly look at the R&M

dochabanero thanks for the feedback ... Taking in account the remarks of Gary ... SAG ... the Kenevo has a RockShox Super Deluxe Coil Select, 62.5x230mm, S2: 450lb, S3: 500lb, S4: 550lb, S5: 600lb ... do you think this could have a 25% SAG for this 145 kg biker ?

Gary thanks for the tip ... as I'm a newbie but want to learn before deciding ... SAG was a new term for me ... after some Dr Google time I understand that a SAG setting of 25%-35% is the best. I understand also that the SAG is influenced by adjusting the PSI (in case of air shocks). I'm going...

Gary ... my first goal is not to run the Megavalance but to loose weight and have confortable rides by having the FS ... once first goal is achieved whe can always adjust our goals ;-) But coming back to my first question ... are there any FS EMTB that "can" support my current weight ? My...

I'm 58 years old, 175 cm/5 ft 9, and putting 145 kg / 320 lbs. on the scale Driving my Harley supports perhaps my mental, but certainly not my physical health. So I decided to go back into MTB. (Last bike was Specialized Epic Marathon Carbon) So one of the main reasons is to look for a...
