Robbie Stewart Posted July 23, 2021 Share I rode a hardtail for a few years before pulling the trigger on a full suspension. I weigh ~120kg, but when I started it was more. I popped a few spokes on the HT but that was due to riding single-track and jank from the start and being a general wrecking-ball on the bike. The bike is still hanging in the garage and is due for a groupset upgrade, but that due to all the miles it burnt. your buddy should be fine on a proper HT from classifieds as long as he effectively stays on road / gravel for a start.
