Hi Tim, I have owned a LHT for two years now. Used it for brevets & mostly commuting (with 1 pannier). I am under 170lbs. For me, and what I am doing with it, the LHT is so stiff that I gradually lost interest in riding it. So just a friendly warning, don`t do as I did, don`t buy it because all the cool kids have one :)
