Hi everyone I'm here in the UK and due to waiting for a double hip replacement i can no longer ride my normal bike so am going to get a ryker rally but I'm worried i may be too heavy as i am 24 stone or 340 pounds . Is this too heavy for a ryker ?

According to the owners manual, no. If it were me though I would get the Rally for the upgraded suspension and adjustability. I have a Rally on order, I'm 6' 240lbs. I sat on the Base Rally 900 and the suspension was very soft. The Rally has the adjustable preload on the rear shock for heavier loads. I test rode on setting 2 and it seemed perfect but goes up to setting 4.
