Interesting, almost hard to believe, knowing how heavy stacks of paper can be.
I was recently moving comparable amount of National Geographic and the estimated weight was a few hundred pounds (300-400lb?). My car, minivan Honda Odyssey was visibly overloaded in the back, and the real suspension sagging, and yet this bike rear tire is barely giving in. I do not even want to discuss the stability of such an arrangement.
Well, after all the photo is from the Internet.
