Had a pair of SX2s and used them on everything from trail, road, and steep grassy slopes, they handled everything well, and I was between 13-14 stone.

Super comfy, and I still don't understand this weight thing, but I'm used to having massive boots on all day, so the weight issue never bothers, me, can't tell whether I've got a Talon on or SX2.

Will be buying another pair of Salomon's though....they fit my feet perfect, and the lace system is the best on any shoe ever
