I'm having a dumb moment, do you mean the suspension is not worth the hassle of the extra weight of them?
Sorry
Dont worry about silly questions, as someone once said there's no silly questions, only silly answers
I'm a heavy rider too
& find that the front suspension adds more weight than comfort for my kind of riding, although thats not to say it isnt right for you.I'm sure there are some riders who love front suspension.
For info - My hybrid is a Corratec & they normally have good deals on some models at
Chain Reaction cycles, only problem is you cant try them before you buy
Only problem I've had is a few loose spokes on the rear wheel, but got them sorted locally & CR paid the bill
