A related question, the weight limits on frames, presumably they're to limit liability, but are they also to limit warrantees? Anybody heavy break a frame and been told "sorry, we're not responsible for fixing that because you rode it over the weight limit"?

I asked my dealer the same question, he said don't worry about it. We would have you covered. I think that would be a store by store deal though. I buy all my gear and bikes from one place so I think i would be well served there if I ever had a frame issue. BUT if I was a one and done buyer of same said store and never supported them I can see a LBS saying sorry, you too heavy bro!
