But then again, I'm not throwing a couple of Benjamins at them either... I've heard of complaints from, eh, "huskier" riders regarding the Skarebs. Not sure about the R7, but the designs are quite similar. At sub 3lb, it's hard to imagine it not being too flexy for a heavier rider, unless one is mad-smooth-yo!

If I was in the market, I'd pick one up, but I'm just north of a buck-fifty. My two cents.

what are you trying to say about Gunchie?
