Please do tell?As a bicycle mechanic in 2011, all the old stuff got sent to me, then customers would only ask for me which irked some of the cytech guys

Not necessarily disputing what you say, but I was brought up being told 531SL and it's successor 531 Pro weren't suitable for a heavier rider as it was quite fragile.@Mr Weirdo I thought that 653 (mixed grade tubeset) was less durable than a 531Pro set. I assume it would depend on other factors determining your selection (condition, size, parts).
I have taken my information from this forum and articles on the internet. I have read that 653 is 531C main frame and the stays are 753 and the forks are 531. But I then read a post that stated that the main frame is 531 PRO. I understood that 653 was a replacement for 531 PRO?@Mr Weirdo I thought that 653 (mixed grade tubeset) was less durable than a 531Pro set.

Thank you for putting me right.
I have a CSE grade 1 in Craft, Design & Technology
I am only 140 lbs, so I hope I am safe on my 531SL frame since I am the second owner.Not necessarily disputing what you say, but I was brought up being told 531SL and it's successor 531 Pro weren't suitable for a heavier rider as it was quite fragile.
