I thought this too would affect my riding. I rode 2 16Ss for a year. (42 Lbs)
I wanted “more umph” so I got a Nikola2700 (63 Lbs), then 3 weeks later I bought an OG Sherman at 77 Lbs.
I thought whoa, 66 pounds! I may have to re-learn some things. She just sits there looking pretty. 🛞😀👽
Then the Sherman, I got used to it fast enough. Couple unassisted starts and it was… AWESOME. 77 pounds really seemed almost like a natural progression.
I wouldn’t have believed it possible if you told me going from 42 to 77 Lbs would be seamless
