Yeah that makes sense. Really the only thing on the bike that is suspect at this point is the front fork. I'm not a lightweight, so the bigger concern is putting enough stress on the frame over time that eventually it snaps somewhere. The rear end is nice in having some flex, but that also means more chance that something will go snap at some point. I'd hate to be dropping Digger's Rock on that thing and have the rear end explosify on impact ;)
