Hopefully my extra 30Lb won't be a big deal. I'll play with the settings when I take it for a test ride.
I was hoping to take it up to Peavine on Saturday, but it might be too muddy according to the weather report.
To be honest, this bike is pretty darn fancy and the maintenance sounds a little daunting, but I'm sure I'll fall in love with it when I get it out on a gnarly trail. We'll see.

If you want to get all nerdy, you can probably build a spreadsheet to extrapolate the build guide out to your weight.
