Message: [QUOTE="Anssi, post: 187046, member: 23342"] Basic physics dictate that this is not true. If you take off at the same angle and same speed, you will fly the same distance whether you weigh 50kg or 200kg. However, added weight will wreak havoc with suspension functionality and it will naturally be harder to get a bike up to speed when the rider is very heavy. Fortunately our friends in Austria have come up with a solution. The bigger Finn - Anssi 191cm, 90kg - going down to 85 but no chance of getting under that. The big Austrian - 520 SX 107 kg, lots of grunt [/QUOTE]
