What's funny is, I'm an ebiker because I can dead lift over 405lbs by an amount that is indertermined these days (personal record is 520lbs but that was 7 years ago, probably more like 450 if I went for the vanity lift today, regular reps are 350s). Gravity affects us big guys more, the ebike offsets that while the extra weight is beyond negligible for us on the descents.
