What effects can too much weight on your bike have on it's performance? I mean, of course it can slow you down a bit on hills but wondered if it can effect gear changes and such.
I recently started carrying equipment for my job and the total weight of my sacks is 20 pounds. My gears have recently started slipping a bit and I just wondered if that was an effect of the xtra weight. I'm going to have my bike overhauled just in case but wanted to be sure it wasn't going to be an ongoing problem....
