Don't know about changing ride characteristics. I typically enjoy a slightly stiffer bike versus compliant regardless of weight. I wouldn't say it was less stiff when I was heavier and definitely wasn't harsher when I got lighter.
LOL we all know muscle is denser/heavier than fat. I just make up for lack of muscle in fat quantity. Looking forward to the first real ride on the Meivici I'm hoping it lives up to it's hype. If all goes well I should be able to get a 40-50 mile ride in on Friday.
