What is the recommended maximum weight of rider?

During the initial testing of the trike and many times since, Rollers have been grossly overloaded without any ill-effects. However, every structure has its breaking point and therefore a limit has to be put on the permitted load to ensure a large safety factor and to give a meaningful guarantee. From experience, figures of 115 Kg (approx. 250 lbs or 18 stone) on the rider’s weight and 35 Kg (approx. 75 lbs) on the amount of luggage, are considered realistic upper limits for this type of machine.
