Garmin Vector Max Rider Weight

[aerobrain]

I'm still looking into power meters and I'm starting to think the Garmin Vector S would best suit my needs (two bikes with totally different BB and chainset etc) but I can see they recommend a max rider weight of 90kg.

Does anyone have any real world experience of using the Vector above this weight or thoughts on how strictly it needs to be adhered to?! I'm 100kg so quite a chunk over, but really like the look of the system. Damn my big bones lol

Lose 10kg and buy them as your reward.

I like that answer ;-) I certainly intend to lose some weight this autumn/winter but 10kg may be a struggle, doable but a struggle :-)
