Another data point, my nephew is like 280 (?) lbs and I bought the Bashan Enforcer ostensibly for him. (He's an adult. Quit lookin' at me like that.) It has standard forks, not USD's. It handles his girth just fine, although his off road riding style is pretty tame. We've done absolutely nothing to the suspension thus far. This year we might change out the fork oil. We have not seen any need to add preload spacers or anything yet.
